Depending on the version there will be a file called sendmail.cf in either /etc/ or /etc/mail, look in there for a line with "sendmail.cw" you need to edit/create that file (sendmail.cw) and add your domain to it for sendmail to accept mail for extra hostnames. btw, pop3 has nothing to do with it, pop3 is a way to remotely fetch mail. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
