definitely, FreeBSD has software for that. search the mailing lists for
additional information, as I don't have a cd-burner (-questions, -multimedia,
perhaps some others)

Do you happen to be behind a dial-up line? I had a problem (a year ago) sending
messages to freebsd.org because freebsd.org uses a spam filtering system (can't
recall the URL of the company/whatever) that checks from a database if your IP
address is dynamic. I mean the IP address of the sending smtp server. 

If this is the case, then you should use your ISP's outgoing-mailserver to send
messages. They propably provide such service.
I used my own box and it's smtp to send messages, and they got banned. When I
corrected the mailserver to be my ISP's mailserver, and voila, the problem was
history.
