Hi,



I have a problem with my mail-to-fax gatway. I can send faxes from the command line no probs ut I can't get send mail to send mails to sendfax.



I have tried the instructions in the mailfax.sh-sendmail file to no avail I have also tried the instructions here http://www.hylafax.org/archive/2000-08/msg00495.php still no good the mail server is just saying



stat=Host unknown (Name server: 12345678.fax.: host not found)



so it is obviously trying to dns look up 12345678.fax which it is not going to find?



Chris,

It sounds like your MTA is doing a DNS lookup before it encounters your new fax rules. Make sure that your new fax rule is the first rule sendmail is checking.
