My Problem:

I have a small server (3.2 Release) hosting 3 domains for email (less
than 200 email messages per day).  I am using sendmail to handle my
mail.

I am currently connected to the internet full time via a cable modem
using the @home service.  I have registered 3 domain names,
chickenbean.com, tecpro.com, and wolflawfirm.com, and they all point
to my server at 24.4.115.200.  DNS is being provided by ais-gwd.com,
a local ISP.

In my rc.conf file, I have the following lines:

	hostname="chickenbean.com"
	ifconfig_ed0_alias0="chickenbean.com"
	ifconfig_ed0_alias1="tecpro.com"
	ifconfig_ed0_alias2="wolflawfirm.com"

... bla bla bla


(It should be noted that my hostname that has been designated to me
by @home is ci1000971-d.sptnbrg1.sc.home.com.)


In my sendmail.cw file, I have the following lines:

	chickenbean.com
	tecpro.com
	wolflawfirm.com

When I send mail to domains outside my own, for example,
questions@freebsd.org, I get the following error message displayed on
my freebsd server console and log file:

	Aug 14 23:57:38 chickenbean sendmail[485]: XAA00485:
ruleset=check_rcpt, arg1=<freebsd-	questions@freebsd.org>,
relay=ci1000971-f.sptnbrg1.sc.home.com [24.4.115.203], reject=550
<freebsd-questions@freebsd.org>... Relaying denied

Is freebsd.org rejecting this email message, or is my server,
chickenbean.com rejecting the email message?

I am sending this mail message from 24.4.115.203, my notebook
computer running win98, via my mail account on my server,
chickenbean.com, which is at ip: 24.4.115.200

Any mail that I send to freebsd.org, or lots of other domains for
that matter, are rejected in a similar fashion.

I have been having this problem since I moved this server to the
@home network (my old ISP who hosted a similar mail server gave me
such grief that I brought everything in house).

I have posted several questions to the questions@freebsd.org mailing
list, but have not found a good answer.

Thanks in advance!

Charles
