Hello everyone,

 

 

I have done everything I can in my Sendmail configuration. I am using Fedora 20, I used Yum to install sendmail and sendmail-cf.

 

I added port 25 in my IPtables. I have added 192.168.1 RELAY in my access file,

 

I have forwarded the port on my ROUTER. check and verified with port scanner. What's My IP Address? - Obsolete Browser Page

 

Done everything I could. Still when I am sending email to my personal yahoo email address. It shows up in my local user mail directory.

 

Does not show up in my YAHOO or GMAIL inbox.

 

 

for example --> $ mail - "Hello" boss@yahoo.com ( control+D )

this is test email (control+D)

 

I do get a message after executing the mail command ., that I have NEW email in my /var/spool/mail/user , I believe I am receiving mail locally in my /var/spool/mail/user , but not in my GMAIL inbox.

 

I have added port in my IPTABLES. I have not mess with the sendmail.mc file yet. In the fedora tutorial, it says not to mess with the file. I may have to edit the sendmail.mc possibly.

 

Fedora Documentation

 

 

I did try some changes in the sendmail.mc file but it is still not sending out email to my yahoo inbox.

In my httpd.conf file my SERVERNAME directive is set to 192.168.1.3:80 which is my local ip given by my router.

 

I am stuck at this now. I have no idea where to look from here?

 

Any help is greatly appreciated!
