We changed the name of our Exchange email server. Now AIX mail won't
work. What do you change to reflect the new mail server name?

TIA

:-) OK... you changed your *exchange* server and now "AIX" mail
is problematic?

Give some thought to the possibility that your problem isn't "AIX"

Did you just change the name of your Exchange Server or the IP address
also. Either way you must change /etc/mail/sendmail.cf in AIX to
the new Server name.

This only applies if AIX was forwarding e-mail from AIX users to users
on your Exchange Server.
