Hi,
I have a problem with sendmail 8.12.10 on Solaris 9. I generate my sendmail.cf file using m4 *.mc files which adds the genericstable and masquerading features etc.
I use the genericstable to rewrite emails from certain senders on the Solaris server to another address; eg.
root UnixTeam@domain.com
This way system emails sent by the root account will appear to the receipient as coming from UnixTeam@domain.com and replies to these emails (including mail bounces) will go the local Sys Admins.
With Solaris 9's sendmail (8.12.10) the genericstable sender address rewriting no longer works. Sendmail (8.11.3) on Solaris 8 using a sendmail.cf file generated from the same sendmail.mc source works fine.
The strange things is that in sendmail rule test mode (sendmail -bt -d21.4 -d21.12 -d31.2 -d0.4) entering the ruleset
3,1,EnvFromSMTP,4 root
processes the generictable and rewrites the sender address and returns:
final returns: UnixTeam @ domain . com
Can any sendmail GURUS out there please give me a clue what I'm missing or what needs to be changed in my sendmail.mc for Sendmail version 8.12.x??
Thanks.
