Sendmail HELP!!!

[PoisonDrop]

I got sendmail to run on my os x box and everything but one feather is working great. I can send mail from terminal, and I can send mail through sendmail from Mail and even outlook on another machine. The only thing is, whenever I send mail TO my address on sendmail, I never see it. When I check the log, there is nothing there about recieving ANY mail except that which I send locally from terminal. I have tried EVERYTHING and I can't figure out what's wrong. Someone PLEASE HELP!!!

Well, I got it working. I bit the bullet and got Sendmail 3rd Edition. Read a little, had it up and running in about an hour. Just missing 4 lines of code + incorrectly configured the router. Thanks Sendmail 3rd Edition!!! Anyone having trouble with sendmail should check this out.

The bat book (OReilly's sendmail book) is one of the best books ever written for understanding not only how sendmail works, but how internet email works as a whole. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to know more about email. Ofcourse, I'm a sick and twisted person, and I enjoyed reading the book from cover to cover, most people fell asleep in the first chapter

OK, OK. I know that there is already a happy ending in this thread, but I just have to say this because I am so excited all my work has paid off. I FINALLY have sendmail working, along with qpopper. I can send mail, get mail through localhost in Mail.app, and everything is running smoothly. YAY!!!
