Hello,
Happy Easter Sunday. I'm having a probelm sending email
with the proper hostname, domain.
I am running Red Hat 6.1, Mutt 1.0.1i.
My facts:
stand alone PC
dial-in ISP account
ISP = att.net
email account = [EMAIL PROTECTED]
SMTP = mailandnews.com
POP3 = mailandnews.com
PC hostname = curly
curly login = glenn
I've set ``my_hdr
From: Glenn Bajana <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>'' to get the proper From:
address.
I've ``set hostname=curly''. This only appears in the
Mutt message-ids, i.e., local mail I compose for tests shows in vi as
glenn@curly, but when received it appears as
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Local emails (in Mail as well as Mutt) show
localhost.localdomain in the message-ids.
Please forgive me for making a mess of the explanation, I've been trying
for a long time to get this going that I've totally befuddled myself.
Please bear with me.
Is this a Sendmail thing to be fixed, a /etc/resolv.conf or
/etc/hostname issue? I've tried looking into Olaf Kirch's book, but I
found no answer.

My Internet email has bounced, been rejected at times, and the error message
I've received those times point out the invalid domain localhost as the
cause for rejection. I need to fix.
