Re: [cobalt-users] mailing list problem



Hi Steve,

If the Qube 2 is the same as my Qube 3 you can change majordomo to send out
mails from domain.com instead of host.domain.com by changing the following line
in /usr/local/majordomo/majordomo.cf

Change line from...
$ENV{"FQDN"} = "tim.buk.too" unless (defined $ENV{"FQDN"});

...to...
$ENV{"FQDN"} = "domain.com";

As for the host not found error all I can say is that it is most likely a DNS
error but without knowing more about the network setup I can't be specific.  Are
there MX records set up and replicated to show a route from the person sending
the e-mail to the hostname and domain or the mailserver??

TTFN
