Hi,

 I have a problem on 4.2 when sending mail via a smarthost.

Basically the DS host is not being used.

From the modified cf file
---------------------
dnl mail.myisp.net with the hostname of your ISP's mail server.
dnl
define(`SMART_HOST', `smtp.moeisp.net')dnl
dnl
---------------------


From the resulting cf file

------------------------------------------
# "Smart" relay host (may be null)
DSsmtp.moeisp.net
------------------------------------------


I modified the rc.conf file and restarted sendmail. No luck.


My ISP allows dns mx queries but blocks outgoing port 25 connections
to anything other than its smarthost.

With modified DS sendmail still tries to send mail out directly
------------------
Nov 30 07:46:50 blazer2 sm-mta[2891]: lATCuBb8022345: to=moe.sizlak@work.com,
ctladdr=<root@blazer2.home.org> (0/0), delay=09:50:39, xdelay=00:00:00,
mailer=relay, pri=1920573, relay=smtp.work.com, dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred:
smtp.work.com.: No route to host
------------------


Can someone please assist?


thanks.
