4 Hello,
5
6 I have a problem going on with my 'sendmail' client. This happens to be sSMTP
7 - - actually I don't know if the problem is with sSMTP or with some logger or
8 daemon trying to use it. It seems to be with sSMTP, though.
9
10 I will explain the problem before I go any further. I just noticed in the logs
11 that periodically, something tries to send something through
12 '(myhost).adelphia.net'. This is a problem, since there is no such domain.
13 Now to the reason I think it is sSMTP (a misconfiguration, or something): When
14 I try to send mail to a local user using 'sendmail', it tries to go through the
15 host mentioned above.
16
17 I am running syslog-ng, with logrotate. A few other things, that create logs,
18 as well. What makes this worse is that I ran a recursive grep for
19 'adelphia.net' to see if there was a configuration file I missed - all I got
20 were email addresses tied to the kernel Documentation, and the email.log and
21 email.err files.
22
23 If you need more information, I'll be happy to provide it. I just want to fix
24 my system mail so that it doesn't try to send everything through adelphia.net.

26 Regards,
27 Chris
