I would suspect that the sendmail server is doing a DNS lookup of your host and since it is a 192.168.x.x address it isn't in the DNS server and it has relaying turned off (this is a good thing). You might need to add a rule to sendmail to allow it to relay mail from 192.168.x.x addresses, preferably only accepted on the internal LAN interface. > I have been having this problem for quite sometime.That is, whenever I > reply to a mail from Outlook Express, I get the following error > > The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by > the server.
