In your .muttrc if you have this line it will override anything else...or so it does on all my shells including my home box which is SuSE 7.1. my_hdr From: You need to put your name and your email address as such. eg. Ben Rosenberg <ben@whack.org> Also try setting this correct. set hostname= eg. "whack.org" If this doesn't work. Then in your rc.config look for the YAST_ASK and comment it out. SuSE does some wanky shite with their MTA's and the configs for them. I ALWAYS remove SuSEconfig's ability to screw with my MTA because 9-10 it frell's it up pretty badly. But this is just my opinion..and you can take that for what it's worth. -- Ben Rosenberg mailto:ben@whack.org ----- If two men agree on everything, you can be sure that only one of them is doing the thinking.
