Thanks for the quick reply. I used the following link for the procedure. http://workaround.org/ispmail/lenny/test-mail-through-telnet
I did not see any error in mail.log for those connections but in mail.err, i see following error: SYSERR(root): Cannot exec /usr/sbin/sensible-mda: No such file or directory I think my ISP allows me to send email, but some configuration should be done on my machine to make it work.
