sendmail problem

[mirandag]

Hi, I'm configuring my linux RH 7.2 as a mail gateway. I've assigned two IP address to one ethernet card, and I've configured sendmail to listen on one IP. I've something like this in sendmail.cf

# SMTP daemon options
O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtp,Addr=1.1.1.1,Name=MTA

I've a valid IP address instead of 1.1.1.1

I've configured /etc/mail/mailertable to route mails to other smtp server. I've something like this:

mydomain.com relay:[2.2.2.2]

where 2.2.2.2 is a fictitious IP address for this question.

When I send an email to my smtp server (1.1.1.1) I receive this message on maillog:

Jul 30 18:14:11 diamond sendmail[13382]: g6UMEAv13381: forward /home/gmiranda/.forward.diamond: Group writable directory

After that, I don't receive the mail on the other smtp server. I was looking for .forward file and it doesn't exist.

What can I do to route mails from sendmail to other smtp server? Which is the structure and syntaxis of .forward file?

I look forward hearing from you soon.

Best regards.

You can check procmail from your sendmail configuration.
.forward file located $home directory.
Maybe your .forward file aren't configured properly.
Good Luck
