One of my downstream UUCP neighbors just upgraded their MicroVAX
to Ultrix 2.0 from Ultrix 1.2. In so doing, they kept their previous
sendmail.cf file from Ultrix 1.2. However, now all incoming mail via UUCP
is delivered to the recipient, but not before sendmail returns the
letter back to the sender with a "554 Who are you?" SMTP transcript
and logs the same error via syslogd. I can't find this message in the
latest Berkeley sendmail sources, so presumably this is a Digital addition.
Can someone pinpoint the source of the error and what to change to keep this
from happening? Needless to say, bouncing these messages to incoming
mailing list traffic will not win them any friends...
