You need to send from a box that has reverse-dns configured for it's public IP. Since you are using your ISP's domain, that means that you are going to have to convince them to do Reverse-DNS, which isn't likely to happen. Either that, or find someone with a registered domain to let you relay. Josh To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
