If I understand this, you have a mail server using your ISP's mail server as its smarthost. However, your client machine is not configured to use a smarthost. I would suggest that you configure your client machine to use your mail server as a smarthost, since that will make it easier to troubleshoot problems and will give you one point where all outbound email is queued when your connections is down. c -- redhat-sysadmin-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-sysadmin-list
