E-Mail Address Not Deliverable


Need to find out if a local or remote e-mail address accepts e-mail?




1. This command will tell you whether a given e-mail address is deliverable (locally or remotely)


2. it will use all the proper /etc/aliases and virtusertable mappings assigned to it.


3. It is an excellent way to weed out local problems as you diagnose a user's e-mail problems.


# sendmail -bv root@mydomain.com
root@mydomain.com... deliverable: mailer local, user bob


This shows that the root user is on the local system, and is aliased to the local user bob.
