sendmail 8.8.5 and mailertable

[Remco van de Meent <remco@cam053212.student.utwente.nl>]

Hey

We (Hakan Ardo, hakan@debian.org,  and myself) just tried to setup a
machine in Sweden, which should forward EVERY single mail from
xxx@a.domain.org to xxx@c.otherdomain.org (in the Netherlands).

a.domain.org is a machine in Sweden.
b.domain.org is the same machine in Sweden. Mail to xxx@b.domain.org should
NOT be forwarded to c.otherdomain.org.

So, we created a new sendmail.mc file, with FEATURE(mailertable)dnl
included, and rebuild sendmail.cf. b.domain.org isn't in the Cw list of the
machine in Sweden.
We created a hashtable using makemap (mailertable.db), with just one entry:

a.domain.org	smtp:c.otherdomain.org


But somewho, when you send mail to user@a.domain.org, the mail bounces when
'user' doesn't exist on that machine. It is not forwarded.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Remco and Hakan.
