[Mailman-Users] Mailman/Sendmail issue

I appreciate the response, but if I add the loopback address(127.0.0.1) in
my sendmail.cf file I cannot receive mail sent to the machine from the
outside since my MX or mail DNS entry is mapped to an IP other than the
local loopback.

Well David by default Red Hat 7.2 does not port mail through the LAN. I had
to
do two thing first of all in /etc/mail/sendmail.mc I had to dnl this line
DAEMON_OPTIONS (`Port_SMTP, ADDR=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA`) and rebuild the
sendmail.cf and Then in the /etc/mail/access I had to add 127.0.0.1 RELAY
and
also the DOMAIN and the IP range thereof for Relay.

Sorry I haven't been paying attention to the list much very bust day.
