Thanks!
But "sis1.snu.ac.kr" is the main university mailer and my smtp server.
This sis1 computer is somewhere burried in the computer center of the
university. My PC has an unregistered tcp/ip number (147.46.44.183),
but can send email via the smtp of sis1 computer.
This whole setup allows me to send emails with Mozilla to the whole
world, but not to FreeBSD-gnats-submit.
I am not going to bother the computer center of the university, or
start learning the ins and outs of sendmail, simply because I want
to say
"the molden port is broken and here is a patch".
Either someone else takes it from here, or I'll give up completely
and never ever use send-pr again, despite me loving FreeBSD!
Best regards,
Rob.
