Ok, so I'm starting to get the hang of this Linux thing. I'm now running Postfix to act as my SMTP service to get e-mail out from my machine. I do this because I'm using the POP3 account from my home DSL provider and they don't allow relaying from machines not on there network for SMTP traffic.
Anyway, most mail traffic outbound looks pretty normal, but the headers do include tags with the hostname of the machine (pengo.xxx.com), which is not available in any DNS in the world. I have configured my address and reply-to fields in KMail properly, but Postfix is still attaching the machine's host name to all of the outbound messages. This is causing a problem when I try to subscribe to the snort-users mailing list as the majordomo at sourceforge keeps trying to relay to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" and kicking my messages back because it can't reach that e-mail address. Is there some configuration that I must do to Postfix/sendmail to get an actual routable address to show up there? Thanks for any help. David Johnson RLU# 236992
