[comp.mail.sendmail] unknown host problem with 5.64

jim@jagmac2.gsfc.nasa.gov (Jim Jagielski) (07/12/90)

I've done a pretty straightforward port of Sendmail 5.64 to A/UX. However,
it seems that sendmail no longer calls resolver routines correctly.

If I mail to foo@bar (where bar is bar.gsfc.nasa.gov in /etc/hosts), the
mail gets bounced back with a "host unknown" error. foo@bar.gsfc.nasa.gov
works correctly. If I replace 5.64 with the old version (5.58 I think)
then foo@bar works correctly...

The cf file is frozen before the switches, so it's not using an "old"
frozen config file.

I give up...
