i have looked to see if the ip address was hard coded anywhere like hosts
and couldnt find it

i can telnet to all the ports so i dont think they are blocked
these errors might be the problem:
Jan 20 19:06:36 sendmail[10304]: daemon MTA: problem creating SMTP socket
Jan 20 19:06:41 sendmail[10304]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root): opendaemonsocket: daemon MTA: cannot bind: Address already in use

When i send test emails i get:an 21 01:05:54 marty-desktop sendmail[17428]: 4406Tdaec00000002: to=<@hotmail.com>, delay=00:01:00, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=esmtp, pri=0, relay=mx3.hotmail.com. [65.55.37.120], dsn=5.0.0, stat=Service unavailable

also i dont recall ever setting up any dns info previously
if other logs are nedded let me know PLEASE

This means you already have a process running on tcp port 25. Run

Code: Select all

netstat -lnp 
to see wich process is blocking. Or telnet to your host to see wich service is answering:

Code: Select all

telnet localhost 25

The recipient address is invalid <@hotmail.com>. This might be the error. Do you use mx3.hotmail.com as a relay server for your mails? If yes then manybe you first need to authenticate.

wrong problem

i read on another forum that the error is b/c hosts has localhost listed instead of a domain. however i changed that and still get the error
