http://gmail.com. I have never had any problem until recently. The problem
happens only when eBay sends an email to my domain (as

users not volunteering their time and effort to help. Obviously,
it wouldn't make sense for every user to be given root access so

It is difficult to configure and its debugging facility totally
blows. I can't believe how braindead sendmail config is, not to
mention its sucky security. Fuck sendmail, use postfix instead.

through 800 pages of sendmail manpage. Fuck sendmail and
