I have been trying to get sendmail to work properly between an IBM RS/6000
and a 486 running SCO UNIX with SCO TCP/IP. I have everything
working pretty well when I mail from the 486 to the RS/6000, but when I try
to go the other direction the mail hangs up in the mail queue on the 486
and says:
Mail Queue (1 request)
--QID-- --Size-- -----Q-Time----- ------------Sender/Recipient------------
AA25063 5 Mon Jun 24 13:33 <root@pyro.resource.com>
(Deferred: Host Name Lookup Failure)
<root@top.resource.com>
If I run /usr/lib/sendmail -q -v as a non-root user the mail gets delivered
properly.
Can Anyone give me some insight on what Deferred: Host Name Lookup Failure
means and how I can fix this.
Please E-mail all responses:
Thanks,
Bryan
