[Note: I am running Interactive Unix 2.2 and their TCP/IP and sendmail
on a 386 box.]

I could use your help.  I have a configuration of sendmail which
seems do just what I want when I test it using "sendmail -bt".
However, when I try to actually send mail, I always get "Host unknown"
messages for any address with a host name attached.

For example, if I do "sendmail -bt" and put "0 adnan@chubsie" in as a
test (assuming that "chubsie" is in my local domain, which is
"sgtech.uucp", and can be reached via ethernet), I get back as the
output of rule 0:

rewrite: ruleset  0 returns: "^V" "ether" "^W" "chubsie" "^X" "adnan"
"@" "chubsie" "." "sgtech" "." "uucp"

Which is what I expect.

However, when I send mail to adnan@chubsie I always get:

550 adnan@chubsie... Host unknown

Any ideas?
