Good question. The line above is just a normal log entry. Where should
be the problem? Look out for *error* messages in /var/log/maillog or at
the console output.

The tcpwrappers is caused by some tests commands "telnet localhost 25 "

[ snipped - unfortunately shitty top-posting ]

Does the sendmail daemon run? ->

netstat -alpen | grep sendmail

Do you have a valid submit.cf?

I just found the problem is caused by the /etc/hosts.allow. I added
sendmail: localhost: allow in /etc/hosts.allow, it works now.

thanks

hello,

thanks in advance, I am also having the same problem of  'DSN: Service unava
ilable' but it only happens when I send the email to a specific email server
, smtp server. When sending to some other email accounts, it works fine. How
ever, i.e. when I send to a hotmail email account, its status is not sent bu
t 'Queued mail for delivery', and sometimes it is received in the hotmail to
: account and sometimes not.

Would you have a suggestion ?

Thanks,
Ignacio
