Whats maybe wrong here?

whats in /etc/mailname
caves.org.au

or the nullmailer equivalent?
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/nullmailer$ cat defaulthost
vs.caves.org.au
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/nullmailer$ cat defaultdomain
caves.org.au
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/nullmailer$

Its a virtual server, at present vs.caves.org.au
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/nullmailer$ hostname
vs

last I remember, you had to use a valid hostname to send mail.
so it just had to resolve, it didn't have to resolve to you.
if it didn't resolve to you, the bounces would go astray, but worst case, you needed a valid hostname in /etc/mailname.
i think there is a file for nullmailer that lets you identify yourself to the mail server.

Later the vs will be dropped when I transfer the main site at caves.org.au to this virt server.


Basically its so mail from AIDE and root at vs.caves.org.au can get sent to me at my email address here.
