I've had sendmail up and running for 6 months now, and everything works great, unless I send to freebsd.org, then I get: *** ----- Transcript of session follows ----- *** ... while talking to hub.freebsd.org.: *** >>> EHLO beagle.epooch.com *** <<< 450 Cannot find your hostname, [208.232.158.3] *** <grog@freebsd.org>... Deferred: 450 Cannot find *** your hostname, [208.232.158.3] *** Warning: message still undelivered after 4 hours *** Will keep trying until message is 5 days old I've looked in the bat book, and at sendmail.org but can't find the answer to this. I can EHLO locally, and everything is fine. Could this be my firewall blocking a port that sendmail needs? I believe my localhost.rev is set up properly (yes, I have DNS & BIND), but since the EHLO has the FQDN, and hub.freebsd.org knows the IP address, I'm stumped.
