Hi Dave,Thank you very much,about dns I put the 127.0.0.1 as 3rd nameserver
into my /etc/resolv.conf,the previous 2 are the ISP's nameservers.
I was aiming to avoid some of the "unknown" messages from my mail's headers
Anyway it sounds strange (to me) that my localdns can't find my hostname!!

Oh,Good!...BTW now Fetchmail[OT] is reporting this message:
X-Fetchmail-Warning: recipient address [EMAIL PROTECTED] didn't match any
local name
How could I solve this?
