I like using Pine as my e-mail front end instead of Netscape, which
is what I have been using in the past. (Obviously not on this box:-)
Anyway, my e-mail/internet service provider is a dial-up account. I've
had no problems using mail in or out through netscape, but when I write
some offline mail and then connect and do a sendmail -q command sendmail
chokes with an "invalid format error" and in tho log files I find DNS
lookup problems. Understandable since my home network is not registered
in any DNS (except my own of course:-). My isp assigns me a temporary
address.
My question is: How do inform sendmail of this situation and use sendmail
off-line?
( By the way, I purchased the sendmail book awhile ago and actually
attempted to read the entire thing. I don't recall seeing an answer to
my problem within those 16 or 17 hundred pages and I hope no-one
refers me to the book (without page numbers anyway). I'm not sure if
I could stand another few weeks of constantly nodding off :-)
You have all been a great help in the past, and I hope some one
is able to help on this one. (Pine is so much easier on the eyes)
