However, my machine is connected to the internet via dialup, and its name is different from that of the isp's. It's name does not resolve to a real ip address. Consequently, the message can't be sent. Is there a way to get the message through? And, how I can I make sendmail masquerade as the real hostname? Is a sendmai.cm file valid? Thanks. Joe Clarke
