I noticed on a couple of our mail servers, delivery to gmail was getting stuck in the outbound queue. Our MTAs are all sendmail If I hardcode delivery to gmail to 74.125.142.26 via a mailertable entry, mail goes through fine But if let it naturally select the inet6 addr, it hangs Running /var/spool/mqueue/rBLDcRmZ092661 (sequence 1 of 1) <miketancsa@gmail.com>...

For the archives, I should have know this, but to get sendmail to spit out a little more of the exchange, a -d17 would have done the trick. eg sendmail -q -qRdestuser@gmail.com -v -d17 ---Mike On 12/21/2013 9:01 AM, Mike Tancsa wrote:
