Nothing major but it's still aggravating me nonetheless. I have a local domain name set up on my FreeBSD server and qpopper handling the mail for that server. When I logon my Samba domain on my XP machine and use Outlook, I can send mail to t_radigan@home.newrevolutions.net without a problem. However, when I try to send mail to t_radigan@newrevolutions.net I get errors. Anyone have any ideas on how I can solve this?
