AFAIK you can but the IP address needs to be properly quoted (with

i mean, if you are [EMAIL PROTECTED], you could send

Moongroup consulting (www.moongroup.com) has some excellent resources
involving setting up mail on a Linux platform. They also have a sendmail
mailing list which I subscribe to. It will not add a lot of traffic to
your inbox, but serves as a really great forum for asking anything

on what MTA you're going to use (sendmail? etc?), how
many accounts are going to be on the machine, lots of
things.
bet you there'd be a howto somewhere on this (maybe on
red hat's website?), or you might want to check out
the very excellent Essential System Administration
book by

Hey Jenn,
Thanks for your, and everyone else's help. That seemed to be the

happen when I use something like pine and not IMP

Hey All,
I have gotten some response over this question before
but nothing I seem to do corrects it. I am connected
via 1 IP. My network, of which includes a mail server,
sits behind a MASQ'd router. The name of the mail server
is pony.ip-solutions.net. When I send mail I have
