Guys,

It's been years for me to work with sendmail. I have an issue there I don't
know if it's sendmail or Google.

A bit of history to help better understand

We use Google for our mail. We have a server in our datacenter that sends
log watch, nagios alerts, cron job, and so forth. This would then send be
forward to Google.

Everything was working until the other day, no files have been changed, but
now I am get the following errors on my server and no messages are being
sent to Goggle.

It says the message is sent, but what got me worried is this

Oct 24 16:36:39 post sendmail[13667]: q9OGadCV013666: forward
/mnt/nas-sgd2/home/chuck.payne/.forward.post: World writable directory
Oct 24 16:36:39 post sendmail[13667]: q9OGadCV013666: forward
/mnt/nas-sgd2/home/chuck.payne/.forward: World writable directory

We don't have any .forward, this started just a couple days ago. No clue
why sendmail is saying that

Also I am seeing this alot

Oct 24 16:38:37 post sendmail[14153]: q9OGcbUF014153:
post.performancematters.com [10.0.0.53] (may be forged) did not issue
MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN during connection to MTA

This is also new...

Can someone that is a Sendmail guru help. Please note, production box, can
change to postfix. Tried that fight already.
