I know that this is a question that asked many times, but I can solve
the problem alone. I have read the sendmail-manuels und FAQ and this
newsgroup but I still have the problem. I have tried to search for the
solving many hours (days).

If I send a mail from my local mailer sendmail does not set the
correct emailadress, evrytime there is an error like this:

----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
<a.muschkat [at] muschkat.de>
(reason: 553 5.1.8 <root [at] dsl-router.muschkat.local>... Domain of
sender address root [at] dsl-router.muschkat.local does not exist)

Here my m4 file:

divert(0)dnl
VERSIONID(` [at] (#)Setup for SuSE Linux 8.12.3-0.4 (SuSE Linux)

MASQUERADE_AS(muschkat.de)dnl
MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(dsl-router.muschkat.local)dnl
MAILER(local)dnl
MAILER(smtp)dnl
LOCAL_CONFIG


The file genericstable contains:
root mailserver [at] muschkat.de


It should masquerade dsl-router.muschkat.local to muschkat.de?

Whats wrong, please help.

Turn these off. you have just posted too many details and these setting set
you up for some nasty abuse!

Interesting choice with DSL? why no DNS? Possibly an attempt to make this
work.

It is possible that you have misunderstood the role that the "submit.cf"
file plays in this. Check over the security information for sendmail, and
look at the differences between the clientmqueue, and the mqueue.

This should point you in the right direction, without giving it to you on a
silver plate ;-)

Viel Glück!

Hi,

rewriting adresses by genericstable only works when
you put the domain to be rewritten in class {G} e.g.
in your .mc file:
GENERICS_DOMAIN (dsl-router.muschkat.local)dnl

btw. you find this (and much more) in the sendmail
sourcetree cf/README file.

bye.

Cave SMART_HOSTem. ;-)

(And, for sake of completeness, if Andreas wanted to serve *incoming*
SMTP, I'ld expect him to use some real domain in hist host setup right
away, regardless of whether he's using some dynamic DNS service or
ordered a fixed IP from his ISP.)
