hi all,
my isp changed there mail system,
now i have to add my domain to my user name
from what i am reading pine uses the user name from the system,
well for  example i log in as rturner2
now that worked fine when my isp did not require me to
add on my domain name,
i just created a new user and that worked fine,
my isp wants my login for email to look like this
rturner@texasisp.com
because pine uses the $user and i can't create a new user
with the domain added on to my user name,
i don't know how to fix this problem.
any ideas on how i need to configure pine or sendmail to accept this?
thanks in advance
randy

I'd suggest the best way is to use the domain setting in Pine.  From the 
main menu, hit s, then c, and the domain is the 2nd option, just below the 
"personal name" option.

i checked that and it is ok,
my domain is texasisp.com
my smtp is mail.texasisp.com
my question is if my mail server
is asking for a login where is pine and sendmail
getting a login for my mail server?

i have to trick the system,
i have to take the smtp out of pine
then send something
then put the send mail back in and it works.
only for a while though.

Ok, so as I understand it, you need to log in to send email, not just 
receive?

In this case, I'm not sure I can be of much help, except to suggest that, in 
the short term until you've done some reading around the Pine docs, it might 
be faster to quickly set up a mail server on the local machine, since it 
should be possible to set that up to do your smtp log-in.  If you do this, 
you need to set the Pine smtp server option either to localhost or the empty 
string.

If his ISP blocks or filters out-bound tcp port 25, then that won't
help him.

And, you may need to set your equivalent of my:

define(`SMART_HOST',`cantata.rednote.net:587')
MASQUERADE_AS(`rednote.net')dnl

To keep lists like this one happy.

If you do make such changes in sendmail.mc, be sure to make them. In my
case, it's:

make -C /etc/mail

and then restart sendmail.

Now, the 587 port requires other things, like TLS. So, there can be more
to it. I don't know whether one would TLS over port 25, but that's more
about your ISP, I suppose.

A nmap -P0 on the ISP's address would tell us quickly what mail ports
are listening.

Actually, we don't at all care what mail ports on the ISP's address
are listening. What we do care about is if he can send mail to other
servers besides his ISP on port 25. You can determine that for example
as follows:

telnet speech.braille.uwo.ca 25

If speech.braille.uwo.ca responds, then he doesn't need to use his
ISP. If speech.braille.uwo.ca doesn't respond, then he's limited to
using his ISP to send mail, unless he can find someone else to relay
through. Even if he can send mail by himself, he still may not be able
to send it to every server if he's on a dynamic IP, as someone else
has already pointed out.

And, he may not want to if he doesn't have his own domain name.

I don't see what sending mail from his own machine has to do with
having his own domain name or not. When I used to be on dial-up,
before I had my own domain name, I used to send my mail on my own all
the time, using my ISP's smtp server to do so only if the mail
exchanger to which I was sending wouldn't accept mail from me because
I had a dynamic IP.

Having your own domain name is not incompatible with having a dynamic IP
address. I have both. I use www.dyndns.org to manage the mx records that
connect my own domain name to my dynamic IP address. The way it works is
that if you do a name lookup on hhs48.com you find my dynamic IP
address, but if you do a reverse lookup on the IP address, you get my
ISP information. It's a kind of hybrid.  But it allows me to advertise
my domain name for email purposes and for my web site, but it still
appears to recipients of my email as a dynamic IP address. For that
reason I continue to pass of my outgoing mail to my ISP instead of
sending it direct, although my incoming mail comes to me direct instead
of through my ISP.

Well, the world keeps turning, and things that used to be soon are no
more.

Increasingly, locations are declining to accept mail from domains they
cannot resolve. It's one, fairly commonly used anti-spam strategy.

So, not having your own domain certainly doesn't prevent you from
sending mail, but it may prevent your mail from getting through. In
fact, it's quite likely that some of it won't go through.

Therefore, it becomes a policy concern, not a technological question.
Can you? Yes. Should you? Maybe not.

So, are they blocking your outbound? Why don't you try mine:

It looks like their blocking/filtering your out-bound port 25, which
is unfortunately becoming more and more common with U.S. ISPS. Your
only options are to send mail through your ISP, relay your mail
through someone else via tcp port 587 (which shouldn't be blocked), or
switch ISPS, which I would personally consider to be a rather extreem
move.

An entry in the `submit.cf' file for sendmail fixes this problem on my
system.  Here on Slackware, the file is at `/etc/mail/submit.cf'.  The
line to be searched for should be at about line 59, and should include
the text 'my official domain name'.  A couple of lines below this
line, enter a line which starts with 'Dj' (note the capitalization)
followed by your domain.  The important line entered in my submit.cf
file includes the domain of my ISP (sunset.net), and appears as
follows:

Djsunset.net
