I'm trying to run sendmail in a script. I think that the sending machine
does not transmit my domain name (it transmits localhost) and the
receiving machine won't accept the mail if the domain is not real.
I usually run pine, and everything seems to work fine. My mail is
accepted as usual, some somehow there must be a problem when running
sendmail from the command line.
I've searched around on the web a bit and couldn't find the error or
explaination. any help would be great.
here's my returned email that I got back with the error message.
