Mail disappearing into the ether



Hello everyone,

I just found out this morning that no mail is leaving my computer, which is
really odd.  I'm writing this on a web-based e-mail, so please excuse the ='s
at the end of each line.

After looking through my exim log, I came upon something funny.  I seem to
have the domain name iceman.mutsumi.or.jp, when it isn't.  It should be either
localhost, sympatico.ca, or bellglobal.com.  Here, I'll give you a sample.

22:11:40 11nZ1w-0002to-00 <= masee@iceman.mutsumi.or.jp H=debian (localhost)
[127.0.0.1] P=esmtp S=582 id=19991115221140L.masee@iceman.mutsumi.or.jp
22:11:41 11nZ1w-0002to-00 => mwong4@po-box.mcgill.ca R=smarthost T=remote_smtp
H=smtp1.sympatico.ca [209.226.175.139]
22:11:41 11nZ1w-0002to-00 Completed

I have no idea where this name came from.  Just a brief background, I'm using
DHCP on Sympatico HSE (ASDL).  I was e-mailing properly probably up to a week
or so ago when I subscribed to the debian-hurd list.  I'm using exim.  I can
receive mail, via fetchmail.  Everything else works fine, www, ftp, ICQ.  Just
not sending out.  

Any help would be appreciated.

Marshal
