If your domain is NOT connected to internet, how is your MTA |
| 10 |
(sendmail) gonna find which mailserver is authorised for |
| 11 |
"domain.com"? "domain.com" does not have to "exist", but there |
| 12 |
MUST be a nameserver, authorised for "domain.com"... |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
In such a case, you must be sure, that your default nameserver |
| 15 |
(in resolv.conf) is authorised for guru.com AND domain.com |
| 16 |
(because as you said, your network is not connected to internet) |
| 17 |
and that it has MX-record in zone-files for both domains pointing |
| 18 |
to server1.guru.com. |
| 19 |
|

I recommend that you start checking your nameserver first, with |
| 21 |
"dig any domain.com", for example, or nslookup. In the answer there |
| 22 |
must be something like "domain.com. IN MX 10 server1.guru.com." |
| 23 |
If you do not get it, your nameserver is misconfigured, and |
| 24 |
your MTA (sendmail) does not know where to deliver mail |
| 25 |
for domain.com. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Once more: |
| 28 |
1. nameserver authorised for a certain domain (e.g. domain.com) |
| 29 |
defines WHERE mail for this domain should be delivered |
| 30 |
2. virtusertable maps virtual users to local mailboxes. |
| 31 |
But just adding entry in virtusertable does not mean your |
| 32 |
mailserver will get mail for that virtual user/domain... |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
And one more thing, there should be some entries in logs, |
| 35 |
if your mail can not be delivered. If necessary, increase |
| 36 |
log levels for bind/sendmail to get more info... |

BTW, could you please turn off that html-garbage? |
