Hi, Well the title should have been "exmh questions become smail questions."
Thanks to Martin Bialasinski for suggesting setting up my own domain. Is there a domain name reserved for private networks like the reserved ip address ranges? I picked home.bradshaw, but I'd switch to the correct name if there is one. Although I doubt "bradshaw" will ever be used on the internet. Thanks to Will Lowe for the final piece ot the puzzle in smail/config: hostnames=your.host.name:localhost Where your.host.name is your fqdn. I wasn't able to send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] until I did this. smail complained that it couldn't find the host, but ping worked fine. I thought it might be because smail was using bind instead of the resolver library which specifies "hosts, bind". I was trying to figure out how to set up bind as more that a caching server when I read Will's message and it fixed the smail problem. The next step is tackling sendmail on solaris so that machine will forward all mail to freefall (the debian system I want to use as a mail server.) -- Lee Bradshaw [EMAIL PROTECTED] (preferred) Next Level Communications [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
