Yes, this is a qmail configuration issue, not related to Mutt.
Since I'm writing, I can give you my take on the problem and a possible
fix.

qmail doesn't consult /etc/hosts, it only uses DNS for delivery.
EDVX.EDVX isn't a valid hostname, so it can't be delivered to.
But because you get this error message, it means that qmail is already
treating that domain as a remote domain. You can get around that by
placing "EDVX.EDVX" in the /var/qmail/control/locals file.
Hope this helps. If you need more help, I suggest you read the various
qmail documents if you haven't already, and then try asking on the qmail
list.
Regards,
Mikko

If it weren't for the last minute, nothing would get done.
