I'm behind a firewall, and I'm trying the same thing and can't
get it to work:
-------------------
# more sendmail.mc
divert(-1)
divert(0)
VERSIONID(`@(#)sendmail.mc 8.9.1a (Linux) 19981026')
OSTYPE(debian)dnl
LOCAL_CONFIG
Cwmixing.qc.dfo.ca
FEATURE(use_cw_file)dnl
FEATURE(use_ct_file)dnl
FEATURE(redirect)dnl
FEATURE(nouucp)dnl
define(`confMAILER_NAME', `postmaster')dnl
define(`confME_TOO', True)dnl
MAILER_DEFINITIONS
MAILER(local)dnl
MAILER(smtp)dnl
LOCAL_CONFIG
## Custom configurations below (will be preserved)
define(confUSERDB_SPEC, /etc/mail/users.db)
FEATURE(notsticky)
-------------------
However, I have an old sendmail.cf V8.7 file that works perfectly
with /etc/mail/users.db (it sent this email).
Any clues?
