I have done all the configurations suggested in the configuration and we successfully set up a bounce management but whenever a user tries to reply back to the sender address its giving,

Code: Select all

SYSERR(root): MX list for news.openemm.com points back to host.openemm.com
sender address: test@news.openemm.com
filter address: ext_01@news.openemm.com
feedback address: abc@gmail.com

The problem here is if a user replies back to that sender address it should forward to the feedback address which is not happening and I am getting the error explained above.

Please suggest!

Why do you use openemm.com as domain? It does not belong to you.

news.openemm.com is just an example domain, any how managed to solve the issue by adding the below line into /etc/mail/sendmail.mc file

Code: Select all

MAILER(`procmail')dnl

Interesting, which Linux distribution and version do you use? In RedHat's and Ubuntu's sendmail.mc this line is already included by default.
