Thanks to Stefan Paletta, Robbie Walker and Dave Sill for their quick
responses. Their advice was right on target - I corrected my /var/qmail/rc file and
retried the test using valid SMTP, and everything works! Made a quick tweak to
fetchmail, and my upgrade from sendmail is complete.
Thanks again.

"But why Hell for me?" he asked. "And why for all? Was it not to keep it
only for a few that Christ redeemed us?"
Father Casper laughed like the God of the damned. "Why, when did He redeem
you? On what planet, in what universe do you think you are living now?"
