I'm running sendmail on a Solaris 2.8 box.
I've set up /etc/aliases to say ...
test: "|/usr/local/bin/mailHandler"
... and run newaliases.
When I send a mail to the machine however, I'm not sure which domain to use as the machines are not in a domain. If I set up a domain for them to be in, would I send the mail to test@my-new-domain.co.uk?
If I run /usr/lib/sendmail -bv test...
I get the following:
"|/usr/local/bin/_ic_mailHandler"... deliverable: mailer prog, user |/usr/local/bin/_ic_mailHandler
Can I assume from this that the alias is set up correctly?
If I send a mail from the machine to itself, do I send it to test@localhost?
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks
