From: blwegrzyn on 21 Apr 2008 14:24 Hello, I am using the default configuration that came with fedora4. I would like to be able to accept emails from outside for domains that are not specified in the hosts file. Currently i must put this in the hosts file: 127.0.0.1 domainname.com where domainname.com is the domain I want to receive the mail for. If I don't specify that I receive relaying denied error. If I allow relaying, the email will go to domainname.com which I don't know to be send to.(assuiming it is configured somewhere) I want the email to be delivered locally. Is it possible to set above without putting any references to domainname.com in hosts file? thx
