OK,
SO after using the exim -bh 1.2.3.4 (or mail address of other smtp server)
this is what happens:
220 dogstar.parvata.ca ESMTP Exim 3.16 #1 Sun, 25 Feb 2001 12:58:33 -0500
helo blah
250 dogstar.parvata.ca Hello mail.ottawa.com [209.217.94.166]
mail from: asandberg@???
>>> asandberg@??? in sender_reject? no (option unset)
>>> asandberg@??? in sender_reject_recipients? no (option unset)
250 <asandberg@???> is syntactically correct
rcpt to: test@???
>>> dogstar.parvata.ca in local_domains? no (end of list)
>>> dogstar.parvata.ca in relay_domains? no (end of list)
>>> host in host_accept_relay? no (end of list)
550 relaying to <test@???> prohibited by administrator
LOG: refused relay (host) to <test@???> from
<asandberg@???> H=mail.ottawa.com (blah) [209.217.94.166]
So what I think is happening is mail.ottawa.com is getting the cname of
parvata.ca; wich is dogstar, so it resolves it to that name somehow.
So I just tried this:
local_domains = localhost:parvata.ca:telksine.ca:dogstar.parvata.ca
And it works!
thanx,
Ariel
