Hi All,

ok, I checked /var/log/maillog and found this,

Apr 11 16:51:06 localhost sendmail[7896]: j3B7p5JJ007893: 
to=<powderkeg at snow.email.ne.jp>, 
ctladdr=<coolboarderguy at localhost.localdomain> (500/500), 
delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=relay, pri=120395, 
relay=sv.feel.to. [211.10.15.172], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (j3B7oLl09915 
Message accepted for delivery)

That looks like success from my end, yes..? But, it's not reaching my 
inbox for the address I'm mailing to. Anything I should be double 
checking with this..? Cheers.

Mark Sargent.
