Hey guys,
In my initial PIAF configuration, I had Sendmail sending voicemail to email notifications on my network to recipients on my local domain, which mailboxes live on my Exchange 2010 box. In that configuration, my local Exchange mailboxes would receive the mail being sent from Sendmail fine. However, now that I have a friend with an extension on my box, he has his voicemail to email notifications going to his Gmail address, and Sendmail's originating emails obviously wouldn't get through to Gmail because SPF isn't in place on that box, etc. The PIAF box does have a FQDN, so I went ahead and setup a receive connector on my Exchange box and configured Sendmail to relay mail through Exchange. Exchange will deliver mail to both local and external recipients fine (Gmail, in this case, for my friend's notifications), but I've been noticing that Exchange has been getting ticked off that the root notification emails (root@fqdn) are trying to get through, and it's rejecting them, I assume because Exchange doesn't see a mailbox that corresponds to "root".
What I need to configure at this point in the Sendmail configuration is messages destined for root don't go over the connection to the smarthost (Exchange) and instead just deliver locally. Is this possible, and if so where in the Sendmail configuration would I make the change?
Thanks!
