[cobalt-security] 554 5.0.0 MX list for niccicam.com. points back to cob184.netlimited.net

I've having a problem with mail on my RaQ4i and have found *NO* information
on the Cobalt KnowledgeBase. :( Basically I'm getting the following messages
bounced back for anything and everything:

The original message was received at Tue, 12 Dec 2000 07:42:21 -0800
from niccicamcom@localhost

554 5.0.0 MX list for niccicam.com. points back to cob184.netlimited.net
554 5.3.5 majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Local configuration error

I did find the suggestion below,... but I do not seem to have the
/usr/lib/sendmail-cf/redhat.mc file on my machine.

I have however found /usr/lib/sendmail-cf/cf/cobalt.mc which is the closest
guess I can find. Does anybody know if this fix should still work on my RaQ
4i and if this is the relevent file to edit? Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks in advance
Nic
