I dial in through telesys and use netscape to check
my mail.utexas.edu account.  But I want to be able
to mail people off the command line, say
with '# mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] < file'.  I can't
do this because sendmail isn't set up as a mailserver, and
I get errors when trying to talk to other mailservers:


   ----- Transcript of session follows -----
... while talking to mail.utexas.edu.:
>>> MAIL From:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> SIZE=111
<<< 501 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>... Sender domain must exist
501 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Data format error

My home machine is called smith1, but it isn't listed
in the nameservers b/c it's on a dialup connection.
This error is from a script that I wrote to send my
ip address to my mail account whenever it changes,
so then I can ssh to my machine even tho' the 
ip's not static.

How do I get the mailservers to recognize me?

Thanks,
Dave
