Thank you to everyone who responded to my previous questions on smail. I have a dialup-ppp connection with an Internet Service Provider. My usename at the ISP is jhspies while I use js as a username on my own machine (which is not part of a network). I call my computer johann.
What happened now was that mail I sent using Elm, had the following addres in the "from"-field: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The correct address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] (ilink is my ISP). Then I reconfigured smail and put ilink in the place of the local host. That helped a little bit. Then the adress was [EMAIL PROTECTED] Do I have to use the same username on my computer than I use at the ISP? If not, how do I correct the problem? If I have to change my username on my own computer, which is the best way to transfer all my present files to the new username? I am not sure whether mail sent through elm when I was not connected to my ISP, will be sent automatically when the ppp-connection is established. I am sending this email-message through my windows-system otherwise you will not be able to "reply" to my mail with the present problems. Can somebody help please?
