Does this happen only with mutt or with other mail clients too? To me this looks like it could be a problem with your qmail/serialmail configuration. You may get better help on those lists. But if only mutt produces the error, maybe there's a problem with your mutt configuration. I've noticed that mutt sets a Return-Path: header containing your local machine name rather than your actual email address, which can cause problems if the mailing list software is configured only to allow posts from subscribers. But that's not the case with -questions. Rahul. > I have a dial-up connection to > the Internet, so I've configured Qmail to use virtualdomains.
