What I see is this: I'm presently using smail, but I saw the same results with sendmail. Things look like this:

So it can't resolve my hostname, which wouldn't happen if I had a static ip address. What is the way around this???

I can't resolve jesusfreak.binary.net, too. What I can resolve, is binary.net. Perhaps the only thing you have to do is to set FROM_HEADER=binary.net in /etc/rc.config mfG, Carsten Hoeger ------ Carsten Hoeger - S.u.S.E.
