I am running 3 centos 5.2 servers and I have configured the server for forward all messages
to root
to be emailed
to me via .forward rule.
This is working fine on two of the servers but not on the third.
I have also tried copying the mail config files from the backup server and placing them on the file server and restarting sendmail. I also removed and reinstalled sendmail via yum but the results are the same.
I am not sure what the issue could be they are all standard centos installs.
Here is an example from the backup server which is working and the fileserver which isn't I am also going
to include the mail log.
