To whom it may concern about configuring sendmail.
I had a good assistance from KCLUG.
I finally sorted it out since this morning configuring this sendmail.
Let me tell you what the solutions and problems were.
Solution:
There was a line on the sendmail.cf file in my case
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf
I had to add this line:
Cw infosavvy.tech.new.net
approximately, line number 82.
As a default, it was listed like this:
Cwlocalhost
I had to change this
Cw my-domain-name
This document is found on page 100 in the book "DNS and BIND" published by
O'REILLY
which is my favoriate publisher.
The error message explained is almost(=exactly) same as that I had.
As a matter of fact, this line may not be necessary to some sendmail that
is already configured as mailer.
I had a similar configuration before at my previous work place.
Well, my DNS configuration was okay.
Now, my system is singing as a name server, dns, and email server.
Thanks for your big help, anyway.
