Problems with sending mail from mutt via DIP
Hi All!
When I send mail from my home, the message header contains the sender
address from my fake home domain (wzab@wzab.nasz.dom, "nasz.dom" is my
unregistred local domain with IP's 192.168.*.*).
This results in rejecting of my mail by many addressees (error:
sender domain must resolve).
Setting the "my_hdr From: " to my official e-mail address didn't solve this
problem.
I didn't have such problems with pine, so I have compared the mutt generated
messages with pine's ones in /var/spool/smail (before the sending), and using
the try&fail method I've found the following solution - I've added the
following line to my .muttrc :
set sendmail="/usr/lib/sendmail -oi -om -f wzab@ipebio15.ise.pw.edu.pl \
-oMs wzab.nasz.dom -oMa 192.168.1.1 -oMr smtp
It results with one warning in the smail's logfile:
05/09/1999 21:46:46: remote EHLO: questionable operand: 'wzab.nasz.dom': \
from wzab.nasz.dom(elektron.elka.pw.edu.pl) source [148.81.63.249]: \
Unknown host.
But the mail gets delivered.
Is there anything wrong with my solution? How could it be done in more
"elegant" way?
