Hi,

I have problems with sending mails from my linux machine. Here is a
description of the circumstances:

System:         Debian Linux 1.3
                Linux Kernel 2.1.29
                linuxm68k
                14 MB, 12 MB Swap

Mailprograms:   smail as mta
                mailx, elm or pine
                fetchmail as popclient


Short description of mailpath:


incoming Mail:   I get mail from pop.uni-mainz.de with fetchmail (using
                 pop3). Fetchmail delivers mail to my system via smtp,
                 smail distributes to the local recipients.

outgoing mail:   if not online mail is stored in the mailqueue. Running a
                 "runq" it is delivered to goofy.zdv.uni-mainz.de when I
                 go online. (goofy... is configured as smarthost in
                 smail).

my problem:     sending a mail with pine I have no problems. For a special
                purpose I need a mailer usable in scripts (-> no pine).
                Sending a mail with mailx or elm some (not all) mails
                don't reach their recipients (but I don't get bounces or
                error messages). The adresses are from aol or tu-berlin.

clue?           running mailq I sense significant differences in the
                queued mails:

Anybody who can help me? How can I configure my system to make mailx fully
work?
