Sorry for the confusion. I did not use real domain name in my last message.
I just modified the original message and replaced domainname.com by real
domain name with email problem.

Thanks for the reply.

You are not using 'domainname.com' as an internal, local-only domain name,
right?  Because it's already taken and registered by a *real*
name-server out there...

Is that the *exact* message you got back?  If not, please post the exact
error message you are getting.

Hi - there,

I got an email problem. My server can only receive email but cannot send any
email out after I changed my server configuration recently from NAT to a
D-Link router (DI-624) which supports and passes through all virtual servers
to an internal server. I always get the attached error message as soon as I
send a mail out from a pop-client, MS Outlook. I think the message was
generate by my own email server. I can send out email no problem if I chose
from other email servers.

My domain name server was configured as follows:

ns1.n2mt.com is an internal server for name server, email server, and web
server.

n2mt.com.	in A 12.208.70.3
		in MX 5 ns1.n2mt.com.

I configured email files 'access' and 'local-host-names' files for sendmail
(2000 version) as follows.

n2mt.com	RELAY				for access
n2mt.com					for local-host-name

And mapped in 'virtusertable' as:   @n2mt.com %1 at ns1.n2mt.com

These files were compiled and mail & domain name server restarted, but the
problem still remains there.

Any one there got any idea or experienced the same problems. Please help.
Thanks in advance.
