Hi there. I have some troubles dealing with serialmail on a redhat 6.0 First, i used this machine on a LAN connectected to the internet, but now i have to use a ppp link to connect to the net. I try to configure qmail as described in Djalil Chafa�'s french tutorial. Local delivery looks good, and even remote delivery with the outbox dir and using maildir2smtp. Well, it is not so good: it works if i use mutt and with maildirsmtp ~alias/pppdir alias-ppp- mail.libertysurf.fr melmoth.penguinpowered.com 2>> /var/log/maildir2smtp.log melmoth.penguinpowered.com is NOT my domain (it s another computer of mine) but i dont know what is my real name (as it may change on each connection) and i know this machine is always online. I have tryed sometimes with localhost.localdomain and this seems to works too (guess i ll chosse this one). Troubles begins when i try to use another mua. I want to use arrow. But i cannot send any mail. Here is what maildir2smtp.log says: maildirserial: info: new/930666614.1151.localhost.localdomain bounced: 195.154.210.35 said: 553 <melmoth>... Domain name required There is one difference in the header of mail sent locally with mutt and others send with arrow. Mutt headers: >From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Jun 29 15:31:10 1999 Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Received: (qmail 1762 invoked by uid 500); 29 Jun 1999 15:31:10 -0000 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Arrow hearers: >From melmoth Tue Jun 29 15:30:44 1999 Return-Path: <melmoth> Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Received: (qmail 1754 invoked from network); 29 Jun 1999 15:30:43 -0000 Received: from softdnserror (HELO localhost.localdomain) ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) by softdnserror with SMTP; 29 Jun 1999 15:30:43 -0000 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I run the 2 software with the same user, having some environnement variable set: USERNAME="melmoth" MAILHOST=libertysurf.fr MAILUSER=pierre.amadio QMAILINJECT=f QMAILHOST="libertysurf.fr" I cannot find how to use arrow to send mail. Any help appreciated, like what is the good variable to assign, or the good doc to read. Have a nice day. Pierre Amadio
