/etc/resolv.conf and sendmail

[Philippe]

I had to flush the queue to send the mail to the mailing list. Anyway, I
can reboot again later.

Here is the maillog after stopping/starting sendmail, which one flush
the queue.

The main difference I can see now is that the relay is different. I was
localhost, and not it is th relay of the people receiving the mail.

I remember having some troubles like this at the beginning of RH9, and I
think the answer was the /etc/hosts file to modify.
