It is indeed likely to be a sendmail issue not a spamcop issue, hence the subject "sendmail woes". [njh[at]bandsman ~]$ ping spam.spamcop.net ping: unknown host spam.spamcop.net [njh[at]bandsman ~]$ [root[at]bandsman log]# fgrep spam.spamcop.net maillog | tail -1 Jun 12 16:20:02 bandsman sendmail[15049]: m5CFK2t2015049: m5CFK2t3015049: DSN: < submit.xxxxxxxxxxxxx[at]spam.spamcop.net>... Unrecognized host name spam.spamcop .net. [root[at]bandsman log]#

All of my reports to spam.spamcop.net fail because whilst there's an MX record for spam.spamcop.net, there's no A record so sendmail says <submit.xxxxxxxxxxxxx[at]spam.spamcop.net>... Unrecognized host name spam.spamcop.net. This started happening a few weeks ago. Is there a mailertable hack I can do to get around it? I'm using sendmail 8.14.2.
