Hi,
A friend has just bought a new computer, complete with a SNiper V

Hi,
I've just set up my machine so it can email the rest of the world, at
least I thought I had.
I can now successfully send email to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" using
elm, but when I try and send a similar message using exmh, it complains
that:
mark at ist.flinders.edu.au: loses; [USER] 550 relaying

Hi,
I am trying to setup exmh to presort my email messages when I do an inc.
I have created a .maildelivery file in my home directory, namely:
X-mailing-list debian-user folder ? list/deb-user
default - folder ? inbox
but when I try to do an inc, it fails
