I left the settings as they were. Then I've installed mutt and have attempted to read/send mail. When I try to send mail, whoever's email address it be, I get an undelivered mail message using mail. It occurs that my To: addresses are being converted to the host@ at my domain name. So if I were to send a message to freebsd-questions@freebsd.org it would try to send it ro freebsd-questions@myspecified.domain which, obviously freebsd-questions is not on. So what do I need to do to get this simple problem solved? Please help. Thank you. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
