Assuming you haven't mixed up the myIP and hackIP parts, this means something on *your* system/network is trying to contact an smtp server on what you are calling hackIP. TCP/IP connections are initiated with a SYN packet. If they are accepted, you get a SYN,ACK packet back. If they are rejected, you get a RST,ACK back. Running 'host <hackIP>' might prove enlightening. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
