Hello, I have a question. I use several Internet providers and when I send mail, I have to use separate servers for each provider; for example, for provider X I have to use smtp.X.com, which doesn't work with provider Y. So I tried to use sendmail from my own machine and put "localhost" to be my outgoing mail server in Netscape (my sendmail runs as a daemon). But this doesn't work. I have Apache server configured and it works fine. (However, almost equal configuration works in my Linux box.) How can I make sendmail send, in Netscape, mail from my machine? To change smtp.servers every time I use a different provider is annoying. The second question is related to the first one. I have two machines linked on a parallel laplink cable and everything works fine. I can telnet, ssh and lynx to another machine. I have a private network, my first machine is defined as "one" with IP address 10.0.0.1. The second machine is "two" with IP address 10.0.0.2. My connection works, but how can I send mail from machine "one" to machine "two"? Every attempt to use elm, pine, etc with address two@localhost fails. My /etc/hosts file is: # 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.my.domain myname.my.domain ::1 localhost localhost.my.domain myname.my.domain #0.0.0.0 localhost localhost.my.domain myname.my.domain # # Imaginary network. 10.0.0.1 one 10.0.0.2 two #10.0.0.3 myfriend.my.domain myfriend My /etc/resolv.conf is empty. Any help would be appreciated. Juraj To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
