But since I only use mutt for sending emails to the FreeBSD ML...I thought I should wait and maybe the same problem would come out from the list (maybe it did and I was just practicing mutt and somehow I deleted those emails)... But I do not have problems sending Emails to anywhere if I use Evolution or Thunderbird and using an SMTP Server settings (my ISP's) for sending mails... Now, that I have come to appreciate mutt...I would like to use it from time to time especially when posting Emails to the FreeBSD lists... But this warning messages only comes out when I send Emails to the lists... >From what I can understand since I am not an expert this is just a guess...The FreeBSD ML mail servers could not verify that the Emails that I sent are from a valid list subscriber (something like an anti-spam function) because I have not configured correctly my sendmail settings (guess)... Am I right? and if I am, can anyone show me or give me some advice on how to configure my sendmail that I can use mutt and sendmail to directly send Emails to the list...Please. If I am wrong, then can anyone...give me a simple explanation (simple please - I know that I am asking too much, but I can assure you that I have already bookmarked the sendmail Website and sendmail batbook is already in my list of books that I am planning to purchase...not yet though) I am using 5.3 Stable in my IBM Laptop and a newly assembled Desktop also 5.3 Stable...My Internet connection is to an ADSL Modem (dynamic IP but have not changed since a year and a half ago)... Below are the usual warning message that I get: > ********************************************** > ** THIS IS A WARNING MESSAGE ONLY ** > ** YOU DO NOT NEED TO RESEND YOUR MESSAGE ** > ********************************************** > >The original message was received at Mon, 10 Jan 2005 23:30:20 GMT >from localhost [127.0.0.1] > > ----- Transcript of session follows ----- >... while talking to mx1.freebsd.org.: >>>> DATA ><<< 450 : Helo command rejected: Host not found >...
