Evolution 1.4 error after configuration
After configuring Evolution 1.4, I get an error. I went through all the settings, and I dont have what it says in the error anywhere. I am posting an image so if anyone knows where to change this I would appreciate it. This pops up when sending email. The SMTP server is set correctly i.e. smtp.charter.net wit no uid or passwd needed...

Hi,

Your hostname is not valid and not recognized... mail doesn't work without DNS configured properly...
You must edit your sendmail rules file and add:

MASQUERADE_AS(your_ISP_domain)dnl

and then generate a new .cf file with m4... this may sound complicated, you should read a little about sendmail.

But I never had to do that before with the older verison? I also am using my mozilla mail fine without any other configurations.. weird...

maybe in evolution you set your "From" email address to the invalid email address (...@localhost...).

change it to your real email address.

also you dont have to worry about sendmail configuration, i gather from your post you are using your ISPs SMTP server right?

i just think jsilva may have been hacking through some sendmail config files over the weekend and is a little fried from it Smilie jk hehe.

haha yeah, I am using

smtp.charter.net

and they do not require authentication...

I will check to see what I have as my "from" email.

Thanks.

The problem is not with the "From" field, but with the "Sender" field... the sender is always the user@host, if your host is called localhost.localdomain, your sender is user@localhost.localdomain...
