Your sendmail is poorly configured and it just reporting itself as "sol" instead of "sol.cs.binghamton.edu" or "cs.binghamton.edu". This needs to be corrected before hub.freebsd.org will accept mail from that machine. The reason netscape works is because it's using "mail.binghamton.edu" which is a different server, and it's sendmail is aparently configured to place the proper headers in the outgoing e-mail. -Chris P.S.
