Spamassassin on 2 IP's - sendmail rejects all incoming mail

We've installed the latest version of Scalix Community Edition for Fedora Core 4 and followed the Spamassassin instructions to the letter.

We are accepting mail for six domains. The mail server is called mail.domain.com accepting mail for domain.com, anotherdomain.com, etc.

Sendmail will only receive mail addressed to userid@mail.domain.com. Any mail to userid@domain.com, etc. is rejected as if we're trying to relay mail.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
220 mail.domain.com ESMTP Sendmail 8.13.4/8.13.4; Sun, 21 Aug 2005 22:41:02
-0400
250 mail.domain.com Hello adsl-xx-yy-zz.asm.bellsouth.net [68.xx.yy.zz],
pleased to meet you
250 2.1.0 test@gmail.com... Sender ok
550 5.7.1 user@domain.com... Relaying denied
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After restoring the original sendmail.cf file we can receive mail again, but without Spamassassin.

Are the spamassassin instructions for an older version of Scalix?

After adding our domains to the /etc/mail/local-host-names file we can now receive mail with the scalix/spamassassin modifications to /etc/mail/sendmail.cf.

Additionally, I installed spamassassin-milter using yum and the default install created a socket different from the one referenced by the scalic/spamassassin modifications to /etc/mail/sendmail.cf.

I adjusted the line in question to reference: /var/run/spamass-milter/spamass-milter.sock

Am I heading in the right direction?
