Hello Ted,
Thank you for your response .
But my problem about sendmail is, I can't send mail by used cpmail01( 
cpmail01 is my smtp server) because sendmail try to use localhost as smtp 
server. I don't know why sendmail try to use localhost as smtp server , I 
config "define(`SMART_HOST',`cpmail01') " in sendmail.mc already.

Winai.

Dear all,

Please help me,

I have problem about sendmail. I can't send to external email account when
i used command following

[oracle] $cat logbackup.log | /usr/sbin/sendmail -v winai.p at cpf.co.th

result is : WARNING: local host name (dbora-swt01) is not qualified; fix
$j in config file
winai.p at cpf.co.th... Deferred: Name server: cpmail01: host name
lookup failure

I'm using cpmail01 as smtp server.
I'm already add "cpmail01" to my hosts file and i don't set DNS server

I can ping cpmail01 and I can sendmail to this account by telnet with port
25 to cpmail01 .

I don't sure to config sendmail.mc.

Thanks in advance.

Winai.

I would try specifying a FQDN for the box or specifying a sender name
in the command, for the From header. This could be the breakpoint for
sendmail.

Try this:
[oracle] $cat logbackup.log | /usr/sbin/sendmail -f you at example.com -v
winai.p at cpf.co.th
