Cannot locate host smtpauths.bluewin.ch: Temporary failure in name resolution

deekee

I have just setup a linux server and seem to have issues sending emails during system startup!

I always get:

sendmail: cannot locate host smtpauths.bluewin.ch: Temporary failure in name resolution

sendmail: could not send mail (account default from /root/.msmtprc)

Once the system is up I can successfully send emails with out any issues.

The service file looks fine I think:

[Unit]
Description=Run script at startup after all systemd services are loaded.
Wants = network-online.target
After = network.target network-online.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/sbin/mdadm --monitor --scan --test --oneshot /dev/md[[:digit:]]*

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Initialy thought I've got a problem with the DNS so I added 2 additional names servers 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

What ever I try I just can't figure out what the problem could be.

Any hint would be appreciated!

Thanks and all have a nice weekend!
