After configuring my DNS service, below is basically what I have in my
named.hosts file:
@ IN SOA nuts.test.com. root.nuts.test.com. (
... )
IN NS nuts.test.com.
IN NS morenuts.test.com.
IN MX 10 nuts.test.com.
localhost IN A 127.0.0.1
nuts IN A 123.45.6.7
loghost IN CNAME nuts.test.com.
When I tried to sendmail to john@test.com, sendmail will give me an error
of : mail loops back to myself?!
Anyway I am using FreeBSD 2.1 and the sendmail.cf that come with it...and
there is no error when I tried sending mail to john@nuts or
john@nuts.test.com..........So can anyone enlighten me on the error?
TIA
