It saying 'comcast.net requires > valid sender' sounds like it. What do 'postconf myorigin' and 'postconf > myhostname' say?

# postconf myorigin myorigin = $myhostname # postconf myhostname myhostname = desk Should I just change "mail name" during postfix debconf questions to "comcast.net" ?? Mail will then appear to come from [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] which are not real emails. It looks like I need to modify virtual(5) or canonical(5) but I cannot grok the examples from postfix-doc. aliases(5) seems to be okay; it's correctly delivering local root mail to my account. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
