Sendmail problem, server not sending to some hotmail accounts
First, try to separate the logs from sendmail running as MTA daemon and the logs from sendmail invoked for initial submission, to see whether "Queued for Delivery" reply is received by your MTA from hotmail or by MSP from your MTA (use -L commandline switch for that). Try to increase...- trabadam

Configure sendmail to work with Exchange
I added FEATURE(`mailertable') to my sendmail.mc and created a file /etc/mail/mailertable reading . smtp:our_mail_server.our_domain.our.net the dot here stands for the top-level domain (com, org, edu, etc. are it's children), compiled mailertable.db, so all our mail goes to the specified host.- trabadam

Best MTA?
>> Also, I need a detailed procedure to recompile sendmail.cf Actually, the tarball has a set of README's that span the matter (you need <sendmail_pkg>/cf/README), so I just clarify some aspect that are not reflected there (maybe because Allman thinks it's trivial) - when you specify some value...- trabadam

Sendmail relays incoming instead of putting it into user mailbox
The problem may be that sendmail by default applies address mapping read from /etc/mail/aliases.db or ~/.forward only to messages that are passed to local mailer. Sendmail thinks that mail for user@bigpond.net.au must be send to bigpond.net.au and passes that message to smtp mailer, which does...- trabadam

Replacing the contents the "To:" field
The issue is as follows: Certain software sends E-mail which must then be forwarded to Email-to-SMS service. The software is buggy and refuses send the mail if the username part of the address begins with a number, so it sends the message to some_alias@our_gateway, with line "some_alias...- trabadam
