Apology
I am sorry for the recent slew of emails that hit the list - I was having trouble sending them and as you can see I hit send a few more times than I should have. Again, my apologies. Paul D.

Sending mail to freebsd-questions
I was attempting to send a different question to this list, when I ran smack dab into a more pressing problem. When I sent the mail, it never reached the list. Further investigation found this message in my mail logs: Mar 16 22:10:32 rackspace postfix/smtp[28417]: 8B00131673: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, relay=mx1.freebsd.org[216.136.204.125], delay=11, status=deferred (host mx1.freebsd.org[216.136.204.125] said: 450 Client host rejected: cannot find your hostname, [65.61.155.146] (in reply to RCPT TO command)) What exactly does this mean, and how can I fix it?

Shouldn't that mean it's already configured properly? Before I go bugging them about it, I want to be as learned as possible.
