< a > There has been a lot of talk about sendmail dropping local mail messages. My problem is a little different. We have two vaxes connected by DMR11s. When I mail from vax1 to user@vax2, mail is delivered. However, when I mail from vax2 to user@vax1, the mail is lost ( not even returned as being undeliverable). Using the command: % /usr/lib/sendmail -v user@vax1 sendmail tells me that the mail is delivered. When checking vax1's syslog, a message which contains the line: Dec 14 17:21:45 localhost: 5264 sendmail: AA05262: to=<user@vax1>, delay=00:00:15, stat=Bad usage Dec 14 17:21:45 localhost: 5264 sendmail: AA05262: to=<jcc@vax2>, delay=00:00:15, stat=User unknown The "stat=Bad usage" and "stat=User unknown" confuses me. (NOTE: I can mail jcc@vax2 from vax1 via the "mail jcc@vax2" command!!!). On top of all this, the letter is lost. Any suggestions, fixes, or similiar experiences will be appreciated.
