Ok. Got that.

What will this help me?

Yes, I got '127.: ...' and '192.168.0.:... ' as an entry.
Now on my online setup I got the following problem:
In my office I am sitting behind a firewall. I got a t1 connection but I do
_not_have_a fix IP.

I am obviously sending mails only from the domains listed in rcpthosts but
somehow I still get the 5.7.1 error! Argh.

Do I have to check this or has this already been done automatically?

Thanks for your kind help.
