Re: [cobalt-users] raq550 smart mail relay FIXED but WHY



After much fiddling, I discovered that if I put the smart relay host value in sendmail.cf in square brackets, like this:
DS[smart.relay.host]
it works :) Though I have no idea why :(
ALso, how can I stop cobalt admin interface from overwriting this manual setting?
I want our raq550 to send mail from web forms through an smtp relay. We use this machine as a webserver only, it does no mail or dns services. The first time I put an entry (relay_1) in the "Smart Relay Server" box in the admin interface, it worked fine. Since then I have changed this setting to relay through another mail server (realy_2), and that worked as well. Now I need to change it to another smart mailer (relay_3). It just won't do it. It writes relay_3 in sendmail.cf, but when I tail the maillog, I notice its actually sending the mail using relay_1. On a standard linux machine I would try
 makemap hash /etc/mail/mailertable < /etc/mail/mailertable
but there is no mailertable! Any ideas are appreciated Julian
