[comp.mail.elm] UUCP address dies

kehoe@scotty.dccs.upenn.edu (Brendan Kehoe) (08/24/90)

 I'd originally posted this to comp.mail.sendmail, til someone pointed me in
the right direction..
 I'm having a weird problem on my Sun Sparcstation 1's (under 4.1): we've got
both an ethernet setup along with a few UUCP sites that poll us. I get mail
from one of the UUCP sites (e.g. logsys!larry)...I hit 'r' in Elm and it
turns the address into larry@logsys, which ultimately fails with a bitch
from sendmail saying "host logsys unknown in domain widener . edu"...mail
to/from the ethernet machines works flawlessly.
 All that would fix this would be to append .uucp at the end (if it's
possible).
 Any ideas, Syd & alla the rest of the Elm_Gods? I'll provide info on my
system setup & my sendmail.cf file if need be.
 (No, it's not here at upenn--this is a test address for when I get my
router for the CS dept of Widener Univ.)
