Good Day All,

Just looking for some help on this one.

Sep 3 12:52:00 node sendmail[440]: g83IoiO00438: to=<pmoran@renen.ab.ca>, delay=00:01:16, xdelay=00:01:15, mailer=esmtp, pri=31551, relay=renen.ab.ca., dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Name server: renen.ab.ca.: host name lookup failure

I have a webserver that I am virtual hosting, and I have 7 other domains running efficiently and sufficiently on sendmail. My problem is this one keeps getting deferred.
It runs a DNS Server, the zone is setup the same as the other ones.

I am frustrated, and am wondering if anyone has any ideas.

Thanks.

Jaye
 
Ok,

I guess my lot in life, is to post a question and then answer it myself.

If you are getting the above mentioned error.
Make sure you put the domain in /etc/mail/make-local-host

very important ;)
