sendmail msp problem: connection refused by [127.0.0.1]

["Klaus Rothert" <klaus@rothert.de>]

Greetings to all debian users,

since upgrading from 2.2 to 3.0 I have problems with my mailserver. I use
SMTPAUTH to allow relaying for a couple of people. Sending mail via SMTP
from an external source does work fine but sending mail locally to an
external address does not. As I understand it local mail is handled by the
msp and I see lots of mail in /var/spool/mqueue-client. In mail.log are al
lot of messages like:

Oct 20 06:50:01 merkur sm-msp-queue[4376]: g9JEA1Mx027074: to=klaus@xxxx.de,
delay=14:40:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=7954031,
relay=[127.0.0.1] [1
27.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1]

So it looks like the mta doesn´t accept mail from the msp.

Question is, why and what do I do?

Greetings
Klaus
