- Ok, as you can see, I'm not posting this message from my Linux
- machine. This is causing me great pain. I've installed the
- mailpak-1.3 and have got elm and mail working locally. Mail sent
- locally works cool. Only problem is, any mail I try to send outside
- my system ends up in dead letter. I've got a paths file with my
- smart-host defined, and I've tried it with smail and without...
- Here's the way it all looks...
-
- My paths file...
-
- smart-host bobsbox
-
- Nothing else...
-
- When I don't use smail, externally sent mail ends up in dead.letter.
- Elm tells me the mail is sent. In my /usr/spool/uucp/bobsbox
- directory, there is one file. The C.??? with the data
-
- S D.wefunkN0026 D.wefunkN0026 root -C D.wefunkN0026 0666
- S D.wefunkX0025 X.wefunkX0025 root -C D.wefunkX0025 0666
-
- Nothing else. My mail is in /tmp/dead.letter, and I get no errors
- beyond that. No logs for uux, nothing...
-
- When I use smail, the same type of thing happens, but instead of
- dead.lettering the mail, I get an "undelevered" error, with the error
-
- Error executing
- uux -aroot - bobsbox!rmail '(ludwig)'
-
- So, anyone know what's going wrong?
-
- Thanks...

- (By the way, please mail responses back as well as posting them.
- It's near impossible to read the entire comp.os.linux...
