When I write a new message, the From line in my message header at first reads: From: Haines Brown Using it causes the error message to appear: Denied posting - The From looks strange : "Haines Brown " My work around is to edit the line so that in place of my domain name is my e-mail address. I need to figure out where gnus is getting that information so that I can correct the error at its source. The following results not quite seem right $ hostname returns: teufel.hartford-hwp.com $ hostname -a returns: localhost.localdoman teufel.hartford-hwp.com $ hostname -d returns nothing (should be my domainname) $ hostname -f returns: localhost (should be my fqdn) $ hostname -s returns: localhost (should be "teufel") $ hostname -v reuturns: gethostname()=`teufel.hartford-hwp.com' teufel.hartford-hwp.com /etc/hosts/ has: 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdoman teufel.hartford-hwp.com 192.168.1.1 teufel teufel.localdomain My /etc/mailname file has: hartford-hwp.com, and I understand that it is the domain name that should be here. However, I'm not sure that this file is relevant here. -- Haines Brown KB1GRM
