[216.144.3.38], dsn=5.0.0, stat=Service > unavailable That is a permantent failure DSN code. At this moment, testing the host "mail.jadesterling.com", trying to send a mail with "MAIL FROM:<apache at jadesterling.com>" and "RCPT TO:<hnguyen at jadesterling.com>" was accepted (I did QUIT and did not really send a mail message). The answer from the recipient host "Service unavailable" indicates that at time you tried to relay through that smart host it did not act properly. You said that is the MTA of your ISP (looks like a Windows® software) - you should ask them about availability of that host. Before please read through my comments on your sendmail.mc and change some settings. A restart of the sendmail service is needed to make the changes active. -- sendmail.mc -- > define(`SMART_HOST',`mail.jadesterling.com')dnl [...] > dnl # The following example makes mail from this host and any additional > dnl # specified domains appear to be sent from mydomain.com > dnl # > MASQUERADE_AS(`jadesterling.com')dnl > dnl # > dnl # masquerade not just the headers, but the envelope as well > dnl # > dnl FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl It is advised to masquerade the envelope.
