Smail: 3.2.0.100-4 Pine: 3.96L-2 This is the error message I get: [Mail not sent. Sending error: 450 defer '<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>', sender] Let me state this again. Sending mail on the cmd line will queue mail for later delivery when not online. However, if I am in Pine, it(Pine) attempts to use the local smtp relay(localhost), and mail delivery fails(doesn't queue). Adam. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
