Mail Relaying

Ok, I have just set up my Sendmail server. The only change I have made to it is to allow computers other than 127.0.0.1 to be able to download the email. That part of it is working fine.

When I try to send an email, it gives me an error the server would not relay the message. Now, if I edit the /etc/mail/access file and put the domain in of who I am sending it to, it works. How do I have this setup so I can send email to anyone without changing this file? I also have the localhost, 127.0.0.1, localhost.localdoman, and the eth0 address set to relay. The SMTP and POP servers are the same machine.

Thanks,

Jon

I already did that. Sorry it wasn't more specific, I only have on ethernet interface in there. I'll try some more tonight and post what I find.

Thanks,

Jon
