Just be sure that by taking out the smarthost entry that any "legitimate" emails the webserver may be sending out are still working properly. I.E. Did the marketing folks stop receiving "information requests" about your company after you made the change, say, from a form on the webpage that ultimately uses sendmail to deliver the message? You might want to double check that you didn't "break" someone's legitimate use of sendmail from your webserver, or at least be aware that it might be broken and you'll need to solve that issue some other way.

sendmail. I also found that in the sendmail.cf , our mailserver was listed as the "smarthost". That got changed pretty quick. The formmail has been deleted as well. Things have gotten much quieter on the mail server since. -- Robert E Martin IT Manager Fishburne Military School rmartin () fishburne org 540.946.7726
