Hello,

This is a bit of a clarification with a previous message that I had send to
questions@freebsd.org.  I am having trouble sending mail to verisign.com.

This is the exact sendmail error message (/var/log/maillog):

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jul 25 12:28:59 net1 sendmail[4995]: MAA04995: to=<ca-center@verisign.com>,
ctladdr=<jc@netview.net> (1004/1000), delay=00:00:02, xdelay=00:00:01,
mailer=smtp, relay=gateway-outside.verisign.com. [204.162.64.20],
stat=Deferred: Connection reset by peer during client greeting with
gateway-outside.verisign.com.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------


Here is my mailq output:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
                Mail Queue (1 request)

                 (<ca-center@verisign.com>... reply: read error from gateway-o)
                                   <ca-center@verisign.com>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------


Why would every mail exchanger work for me, but error with Verisign?  They
are able to send mail to me, just me not them.  I thought this would be a
good place for this question as other sendmail exchangers work with
verisign, so it does not appear to be a sendmail problem -- perhaps just a
FreeBSD setup issue.  

BTW -- I think this may have something to do with their firewall.?
