[HPADM] HPUX 11.00 mail problem.

Hey guys, I'm trying to get mail to work on a L2000. We are not running
sendmail on the box as we want to forward any mail to another email server.

Here is the config for /etc/rc.config.d/mailservs

export SENDMAIL_SERVER=0
export SENDMAIL_SERVER_NAME=usnts1

If we try to send a mail then check the queue using mailq we get a message
like the following.

H0R6j4ZC010491 2480 Mon Jan 27 06:45 root
                     (Deferred: Name server: usnts1.blah.com: host name
looku)
                                                        root@blah.com

If I run nslookup, it can resolve the name without problem.

/etc/nsswitch.conf checks NIS, then FILES.

Regards,
