I've run into a problem mailing to host "777sup1" in our domain.
Both sender and recipient are AIX RS/6000's running 3003 and using DNS.
I've included a debug session below:
> /usr/lib/sendmail -v </dev/null guest at 777sup1
ced... setsender: uid/gid = 200/1
guest at 777sup1... Connecting to 777sup1.ca.boeing.com.tcp...
guest at 777sup1... Connecting to 777sup1.ca.boeing.com (tcp)...
777 up1.ca.boeing.com Sendmail AIX 3.1/UCB 5.61/4.03 ready at Wed,
27 Mar 91 10:41:02 -0800
>>> QUIT
221 777sup1.ca.boeing.com closing connection
guest at 777sup1... Deferred: Bad file number
I note that sendmail on "777sup1" has apparently munched the
"s" in its hostname as evidenced by the line:
"777 up1.ca.boeing.com Sendmail AIX...."
Other names with 3 initial digits suffer the same fate.
Any advice greatly appreciated.
