e-mail from local host



Dear all,

I have a single computer connected to the internet via
DSL (non-static IP).  I wanted to make a script to
send me the new IP address every time I connect to the
internet.

Just to try it I did:
-----------------------------
% ifconfig | mail finotti@yahoo.com
-----------------------------

The message was not delivered and I got the message in
the end of this e-mail.

It seems that the message in sent but rejected by
Yahoo and other addresses I tried.  One of them said:

-------------------------------
(...)
  finotti@math.ucsb.edu
    SMTP error from remote mailer after RCPT
TO:<finotti@math.ucsb.edu>:
    host mailv.math.ucsb.edu [128.111.88.21]: 504
<debian>:
    Helo command rejected: need fully-qualified
hostname
(...)
--------------------------------

Any ideas on how to fix it?

Thanks and my best to all,

Luis
