Here's a bit from /var/log/maillog: Mar 2 16:40:39 aleph sendmail[327]: i1SGr1hh004059: to=<brody@math.umd.edu>, de lay=3+04:47:38, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, pri=8130413, relay=math.umd.edu., dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Operation timed out with math.umd.edu. Mar 2 16:40:39 aleph sendmail[327]: i1S4wehh000450: to=<brody@math.umd.edu>, ctladdr=<justin@aleph.none.org> (1001/1001), delay=3+16:41:59, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, pri=10290322, relay=math.umd.edu., dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Operation timed out with math.umd.edu. Don't know if that says anything new. I would wonder if it's some sort of lookup based on "ctladdr", but I get the same error if use "-f brody@math.umd.edu" which does show up in that field. sendmail -q -v reports: aleph# sendmail -q -v Running /var/spool/mqueue/i22M7pof000364 (sequence 1 of 17) <brody@math.umd.edu>... Connecting to math.umd.edu. via esmtp... <brody@math.umd.edu>... Deferred: Operation timed out with math.umd.edu. Running /var/spool/mqueue/i22KDkof000227 (sequence 2 of 17) <jdbrody@wam.umd.edu>...

Connecting to po0.wam.umd.edu. via esmtp... <jdbrody@wam.umd.edu>... Deferred: Operation timed out with po0.wam.umd.edu. etc... I'll give a shot at changing my domain name - what should I use? I'm a bit too poor to actually buy one :) Should I just change to use my ISP's domain? Thanks for the help!
