The -d8.7 debugging switch causes sendmail to print a yes or no response to each of the "trying" line printed by -8.5 . Yes means that the host could successfully be fully canonicalized. A yes answer prints just this: YES If the host could not be canonicalized, a more complex answer is printed: NO: errno= errornum , h_errno= herrornum The errornum is the system error number (if any) from <errno.h >, and herrornum is the resolver-specific error from <netdb.h >, as shown in Table 16-7. |
