I need to mail sending help...
I just recently bought a router for my home network. I needed it to be able to
use my new Prismiq media player (VERY cool, prismiq.com). Now it seems I cannot
send email from home though... My SMTP server at school seems to do some sort
of reverse DNS on my IP, and since it's a local (192.168.) address, it can't
find me, and thinks I'm a spambot. I also tried using postfix directly, but it
tries to do a DNS lookup on my hostname. My router assigns me an arbitrary
hostname (ususally: localhost) so that doesn't work either. How the hell do
people send email from behind a router?
Thanks,
Austin
