You forward your email to an SMTP host which will allow you to relay email, and which has a reverse-ptr address for it. It doesn't matter that you've got an internal address, so long as the IP address as seen from the 'Net has got an entry in the DNS for it. -- Jonathan Chen ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "Irrationality is the square root of all evil" - Douglas Hofstadter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
