I had an open mail-relay with an older version of sendmail,
and got qmail installed on my system.

Now, I can send mail from pine, but not from Mail.app.  I can't
get any help locally, so I'm hoping someone can help me sort this out.

When I send from Mail.app, I get 
replies from the mailer-daemon like this:

 Hi. This is the qmail-send program at hotspur.psych.yorku.ca.
 I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following
 addresses.
 This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

 <Georges Monette  <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>>:
 Sorry, I couldn't find any host named mathstat.yorku.ca>. (#5.1.2)

Does this message number give any clue to what is wrong?
I can send email OK via pine, so qmail-send is working, but not
from the NeXT Mail.app GUI mail program, which is so much easier
than pine.

In the Mail.app preferences,  the Mailer is set to

/usr/lib/sendmail   which is symlinked to qmail:

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root          23 Apr  6 22:20 /usr/lib/sendmail ->
/var/qmail/bin/sendmail*@

Can anyone tell me what to try or where to look to figure this out?

thanks,
