<pre>I have a new setup that we cant get email to work.
most every address you try to send to you get a "5.1.1 <user@domain>... User unknown. Please check the message recipient user@domain and try again."
I cant send to the alias, nor can I send to the fully qualified address. (<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:username@servername.domain.com">username@servername.domain.com</a>). Even the system aliases like admin are failing out.
It is still able to forward out the postmaster/NDR errors to my outside email address via the admin forwarding.

I have tried the old standby:</pre>
<pre><pre><i>service sendmail stop
</i><i>newaliases
service sendmail start
</i></pre><pre>
as well as:</pre><pre>cd /etc/mail
make
make clean && make
makemap hash /etc/mail/virtusertable.db < /etc/mail/virtusertable
newaliases
makemap hash /etc/mail/virtusertable.db < /etc/mail/virtusertable
newaliases
Here is the crazy part. I just created a new user, and that new user works fine.
</pre>any other ideas?
