Hi , guys :
I have a problem about the sendmail replay . The following is my condition:
I have installed the sendmail server on my laptop which installed CentOS 5.5 x86 64, and I want to set up the sendmail replay.
That is to say . If my linux account called test and his mail address is test@test.com mailto:test@test.com, when he get the new mail, then the server send the mail to the company mail server , the new mail address is test@aa.com mailto:test@aa.com
I assume you mean relay instead of replay, but your example requires the address to be re-written so maybe you mean forwarding. For known users you can manage this with aliases.
Thanks for all suggestions.
I didn't see "install exim". You see, sendmail is very poor about dealing with unqualified local email addresses: "root" and yout local account name won't get relayed to the smarthost unless you set up aliases or .forwards or other settings for them, anyway.
postfix can handle that, but then it ignores local .forwards and locally configured aliases. Also unacceptable in my book.
Exim rather easily does both. If you'd like, I'll post my notes on the configuration.
