Re: I think I have a relaying problem...

Hi Chuck,

In the sendmail log, the Authentication-Warning: lines are a result of
the majordom user missing from the list of trusted-users.  To solve this,
either add "Tmajordom" to sendmail.cf or "majordom" to /etc/mail/trusted-users.

The message header you posted is the result of a message addressed to the
[email protected] address that did not have any valid commands for
majordomo to interpret and respond to.  Notice that the X-Authentication-Warning
appears in the headers too.  Anything in the first 10 lines of a message
addressed to your lists will be checked for majordomo commands that should
have been sent to the majordomo address.  All messages to majordomo are
supposed to contain majordomo commands.
