I've attatched my config file, as well as the -d9 output from sending
myself a message with
/usr/lib/sendmail -d9 chrish@??? > & fool
The message was something like:
From: joe schmoe
To: bill nye
Subject: fool
This is a message
The problem apparently lies in the the bit that goes like this:
domain_director director skipped: domain mismatch
mlists director skipped: domain mismatch
stripped suffix -junk
dashed_forward director skipped: previously directed chrish@???
calling standard_forward director
What I don't understand is why my suffix is being "stripped". Because
once it has been "stripped", then the chrish@??? has
indeed already been processed by my filter file. However, if the suffix
hadn't been stripped, then it should call the new filter file with the
chrish-junk@justin address, and things should be fine.
Ideas?
