hello,
I have a sendmail-server in our local network with a local domain.
Sendmail now uses this local hostname/domain for HELO. Some guys
therefore don't accept mail from us.
How can I change the HELO to our official hostname/domain?
To make it perfect: How can I configure this for Suse
/etc/sysconfig/sendmail?
Thank you very much for any help.
Cheers
Martin

You can even make sendmail use name of outgoing IP interface it uses.
It is very handy on multi interface servers or servers using dynamic IP
addresses (some people use them anyway).
