I am running a webserver on RH8, and am using dnydns.org to assign a nice name to my IP (which isn't quite static - but that's why I'm using dyndns.org)... Anywho, I can't seem to get my mail server running properly. If I try to send to the outside world from a user account, I end up getting the mail back in hte root's mail box with several messages appended to the top... I get it twice so, I'd assume it is being sent and received and is clueless about what to do with it.

Here is the returned message:

Code:

will this work?

It looks like it is sending from the loopback... Any ideas on what is wrong and where to fix it?
