My computer is behind a home  firewall/DHCP server. under
/var/qmail/control/rcpthosts is my DHCP address.  I would like to send
mail out with a FROM address of my free-mail address.  Using Pine, when I
try to send an email, I get the error message repeated in the subject
line.  

qmail was installed via the ports collection on a FreeBSD 4.2-stable box.
I've followed the directions in the FAQ regarding user masquerading, which
was the closest thing I could find which compared to what I'm trying to
do.  What the FAQ said was add MAILHOST=<domain.tld> and MAILUSER=<name>
to my enviroment. DONE.  I added <domain.tld> to my
/var/qmail/control/locals and rcpthosts files, beneath my DHCP address, as
suggested for recieving mail for another host. DONE. I changed the
/var/qmail/control/defaultdomain to <domain.tld> as per section 1.1 of the
FAQ, just to see if it would help.  After all these changes, I
kill -HUP'd the qmail and inetd servers running. 

I hope I've included enough information, but I'd be happy to supply
anything else relevant if necessary. If anyone could offer any help, I
would much appreciate it. Thank you in advance.
