Hello,

We have Linux 7.2 server. We used sendmail to send and recieve email. We set up /etc/mail/virtusertable like
@mydomain.com mydomain

Also sendmail.cw has these domains such as mydomain.com

We set up virtual domain in our apache httpd.conf

But whatever how I test, I just couldn't recieve any test message from all domain like contact@mydomain.com

Appreciate any input !

 
Hi,

Just post above message. I want to clear something. In our virtusertable, there are dozens of domains. Just new input domains couldn't receive any message. But previous domains work OK.

It seems that I could send email out, no bounce back. But I just couldn't receive any test message for these new domain.

After I changed file like /etc/mail/virtusertable, what else I need to do in order to make sure it works?

I took a look at /var/spool/mail/, there are my new domains there as well.

I used outlook express 6.0 under win2k.

Any suggestions are really appreciated.
