Hi folks and prepare to suffer. Dec and email again :-(.

I'm back in lfs-3.3 and have currently tried rejigging my mail setup
of Postfix, procmail, fetchmail, mutt, spamd/spamc to work from my new
isp. I cannot send, apparently because esat bt (a.k.a. iol.ie, a.k.a
bt ireland) are rejecting an (unknown) server. This is the kernel of
it.


<[email protected]>: host mail.iol.ie[193.120.142.151] said:
    550 rejected: cannot route to sender <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (in reply to end
    of DATA command)

others smtp commands failing are MAIL FROM, and RCPT TO. Even the
Message-id gets @genius.chateau.dec on it and isps here are getting
fussy.

It then dumps the mail in my new email address,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] So genius.chateau.dec has to be replaced by
something somewhere. Grepping for the chateau in my hostname, I get

>From /etc/postfix/main.cf:

myhostname = genius.chateau.dec
mydomain = chateau.dec 
masquerade_domains = chateau.dec, iol.ie
smtpd_banner = genius.chateau.dec under LFS-3.3 and postfix

>From .muttrc:

set hostname=genius.chateau.dec

It's also in resolv.conf, hosts, and hostname, and even in
./etc/postfix/*.db. I would ideally like to persaude iol.ie I am one
of theirs, and stay what I am for laziness, but I must change this
enough to work. Guesses are that I can run with the
[EMAIL PROTECTED], or maybe [EMAIL PROTECTED], or conceivably
[EMAIL PROTECTED] The iolbb bit is 'iolBroadBand' and distinguishes
my service from other services on the same set of servers.


Any ideas?
