Hi all:

Running on Solaris 8. I do not want to run sendmail in the daemon mode (-bd) so I have modified the DS directive, the Cw, created the /etc/default/sendmail file with "MODE=", etc...

The sendmail is not running in -bd mode and I can send mail to my account.

When I try to send mail to root, it is still trying to relay to 127.0.0.1 and the connection is deferred.

How to get all mail (root included) to honor the DS directive and sendmail mail out that relay?

Many thanks!
