[Mailman-Users] Internal Domain Resolution

[Sullivan, John]

Here is a chunk of the maillog file. 


Mar 31 12:01:57 localhost sendmail[780]: h2SKs2Rg011995: 
to=<jsullivan at mlsnet.com>, delay=2+20:07:55, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, 
pri=6439538, relay=mail.majorleaguesoccer.com., dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: 
Connection timed out with mail.majorleaguesoccer.com.

Mar 31 12:01:57 localhost sendmail[780]: h2R14iRf002505: 
to=<90minutes at mlsnet.com>, delay=4+15:57:12, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, 
pri=10488802, relay=mail.majorleaguesoccer.com., dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: 
Connection timed out with mail.majorleaguesoccer.com.



It is trying to send mail to jsullivan at mlsnet.com through the relay of
mail.majorleaguesoccer.com - 
Same Server ---mlsnet.com and mail.majorleaguesoccer.com ---
as far as the DNS/MX records go so it shouldn't make a difference. 

Both of these domains (lists.mlsnet.com and mlsnet.com are on the same
network)


Is there a way I can tell the mailman to resolve mlsnet.com locally rather
looking for a relay on the internet - I think that is my problem but not
sure how to fix it.

John,

I don't know exactly what you are running up against.

But a good place to look for clues are the various logs.  I would start 
with <mailman_dir>/logs and check out the bounce log.  Maybe the 
messages there would help.

Sendmail logs would be the next step.
