[CentOS] Sendmail Configuration Problem - 550 5.1.1 - User unknown Problem
Hi, I'm having this Sendmail configuration problem and stuck. I've been doing googling/reading posts and none of the solutions matched my problem. I'm doing some testing, and have been getting this 550 5.1.1 ....User unknown error when I send the email to my company's email address. When I send it to an external email address, such as yahoo, the message delivered successfully. Of course, I'm doing the configuration behind a firewall. I'm using a relay too, and I did declare the relay host in 'SMART_HOST' in the sendmail.mc file and have also recompiled it to produce the sendmail.cf. I also restarted the sendmail service. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- telnet ana.boeing.com 25 Trying 134.51.151.114...

Whatever it is, it thinks it should be able to deliver mail to boeing.com locally, but doesn't have a mary.y.wang user or alias. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com

It's working now. I just commented out some of the FEATURE lines in sendmail.mc file.
