Ok, I too now

smtp and over smarthost (fetchmail) was, because my private workstation
machine runs not all time and I have to dial in (though DSL) so the IP is
not static.

The name of my machine is, say, XY - how could I get a FQDN? In my case this
goes not, I suppose?


7 to 9 (sounds like star trek ;-) ) were the configurations for '...over
smarthost'

Ok, so I do now.


Beside I still have 'machinename' in the configuration for missing FQDN I
now get this when sending a mail to my yahoo over alice: (some changings in
here)

Please, John, no excuses! I must excuse this bothering problem - and its
great, that there are such people in the community, answering an
bad-English-writing German Debian-newbie...
