I was actually looking at that this morning. What's happening is when I run the ePDFconf.sh file, it's seeing the outside IP address of the SMTP server and is going with that and not the smarthost. I checked the network IP settings and everything seems to be right since for the most part they match what I have on the working linux box. The differences are that there's an sit0 network...

Ah - an ICMP redirect. Check the IP settings (esp the netmask) on the acrophobia box. Use this command:
ip addr
You can do some testing with "ping" and "traceroute". Once the packets are going to your exchange server, everything will probably start working :)

I think I see what's happening. Acrophobia is trying to send to the Exchange server but it's either being routed towards the firewall or the firewall is routing it possibly "outside" for some reason.
I'm saying that because when I'm reading the packets it looks like:
time. some number IP 'gateway ip' > 'acrophobia ip': icmp 36 redirect mail.domain.com to net 'firewall ip'...

Understood. I would've thought it was relaying but thanks for the explanation.

was with the exchange...

Hmmm, it's funny that you mention outgoing connections are allowed by default. I did some reading and it says that for sendmail 3 and up, relaying is no longer allowed by default and has to be turned on. I got a little confused by what they were saying you have to do to turn relaying on but if you have any input on that it would be appreciated.
I've done a mailq and actually learned how...

You are correct - the reference to epdfsmarthost takes care of the routing of the mail. The log line that you included mentions your exchange server, so I think all is well there.
The ePDF.py script purges the print queue as soon as the job is successfully sent to the mail queue. You can check the mail queue with the "mailq" command.
Based on what you are seeing, it sounds like...

Thanks for the info. I have a little programming experience and expected as much about dnl and the # signs in the files so thanks for the confirmation. I've been doing a little reading up on Linux and am getting to know my way around and getting familiar all of the commands and menu items. Whew!
Anyway, the line you referred to actually has a reference put in by ePDFconf.sh that's called...

Sorry for the delayed response - the sourceforge notification ended up in a spam folder for some reason...
Check your /etc/mail/sendmail.mc file. Somewhere around line 24, you should see a line like this:
define(`SMART_HOST',`some.ip.address')
Based on your explanation, I suspect that somehow the IP of your old acrophobia box got put in here. You could fix it by re-running...

Thank you for your response! I just tried another test and see that I'm getting a user unknown error.
192.x.x.x dsn=5.7.1; stat=user unknown
And then the line below this: sendmail[xxxxx]: nx3072...: nx3072... : return to sender, user unknown
It does look like it's trying to send to the wrong server. The 192 address is the old Acrophobia box. I tried to use the epdf.map file from...
