Well, first of all check that sendmail is listening on localhost: telnet
localhost 25. Sendmail security has been much improved (though really you
should be on 8.12.3 IMHO).
yes, the port is open. the setup is for my home pc with a dialup
connection. i don't see a need to upgrade to the latest vesion. unless
i'm missing something...
If it is then please post the result of "fetchmail -v -v".
here it is. it seems that i'm getting an Access denied from a MAIL FROM:
command. i suppose there's something i have tweak in sendmail.cf but i
don't what. i'm afraid i'm a newbie in this area.
tnx.
