Well, that was interesting. My mail message got truncated with that '.' in the first column. Here goes again: I am trying to fix 'mail' and I hope some learned person here can save me several hours of frustration. My exploring of the man pages has not helped so far. I am running FBSD 3.4R and am connected to the internet via @HOME (I hope it's ok to use their name. =o) cable modem. Here is what happend when I send mail: jfreeze@eeyore1 -> mail -v -s "hi" jim@freeze.org testing '.' EOT jim@freeze.org... Connecting to www.freeze.org. via esmtp... 220 freeze.org ESMTP Sendmail 8.9.3/8.9.3; Fri, 5 Jan 2001 13:02:06 -0500 (EST) >>> EHLO lxintn1.ky.home.com 250-freeze.org Hello ci590846-b.lxintn1.ky.home.com [24.9.218.175], pleased to meet you 250-EXPN 250-VERB 250-8BITMIME 250-SIZE 250-DSN 250-ONEX 250-ETRN 250-XUSR 250 HELP >>> MAIL From:<jfreeze@lxintn1.ky.home.com> SIZE=41 501 <jfreeze@lxintn1.ky.home.com>...

Sender domain must exist instead of 250-freeze.org Hello ci590846-b.lxintn1.ky.home.com [24.9.218.175], I would think it would be obvious to change this, but I can't find where.
