I've created the mailertable and regerated the db file under Redhat 8
and mail to netscape.net and to ssmb.com
are bouncing still.

I'm using an intermediate server (RH 8) with sendmail on it.
I've setup the mailertable as:

.aol.com smtp:mail.attbi.com
.netscape.net smtp:mail.attbi.com
.ssmb.com     smtp:mail.attbi.com
.citigroup.com  smtp:mail.attbi.com

and I've stopped and restarted sendmail.

Debugging ideas?
