Getting "User unknown" even though in virtusertable
by mfoley from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4WNNY)
Using Sendmail.
I have the following host in /etc/mail/local-host-names:
Code:members.newengland4.orgIn /etc/virtusertable I have:
Code:WM@members.newengland4.org me@mydom.com
LEO@members.newengland4.org user@thatdom.comvirtusertable.db is up to date.
Yet, when sending to LEO@members.newengland4.org I am getting the following error in /var/log/maillog:

Why?
