[comp.mail.sendmail] IDA configuration problem, double domain expansion

etstjan@dutepp13.et.tudelft.nl (Jan van Oorschot) (05/23/91)

Dear IDA guru,

I am new to the IDA world, but have ftp'ed a standard IDA tar.Z file and
installed it just like the manual and README's and INSTALL's said.

All seems to work fine, but I encounter one problem. 

If I send a mail to a non-local domain, the local domain is added to
the destination address,

	destination:

		nouser@aap.noot.nl

	translation

		nouser@app.noot.nl.et.tudelft.nl

IDA is running on dutepp13.et.tudelft.nl. Using "sendmail -bt", I could
determine that the problem arises in ruleset 8. This ruleset 
adds the local domain.

I don't want to hack the Sendmail.mc file to correct the problem. Does some
IDA guru out there know how I can solve this problem by changing one
of the tables or the .m4 file ?

Mail an answer to me please

thanks     Jan
