Well, relay1.exodus.net is probably bogus. I asked Speakeasy (my ISP) and never got a direct answer... Here on Magesium.net, I do have a clear okay on using them as an MX site. The thing is that when I used mail.magnesium.net, I got the same 553 errror. Also, from http://www.dnsreport.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?domain=thought.org I got a FAIL on the postmaster auth entry. I did check out speakeasy.net's web site on this; it mumbled one like about using sendmail's SASL. --Sorry, but this is seriously out f my league!! Anybody know what 'SASL' is? (I just tweaked my /etc/mail/sendmail.cf file. It says:: Warning: Option: DefaultAuthInfo requires SASL support (-DSASL) Warning: Option: AuthOptions requires SASL support (-DSASL) ) gary -- Gary Kline Seattle FBSD Users' Group (seafug) | kline@magnesium.net Thought Unlimited Org | kline@thought.org http://www.magnesium.net/~kline To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
