[ossec-list] Re: OSSEC 0.9 Cannot send email

[chuck <frosted@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I tried using the actual IP address of the machine, in addition to 
127.0.0.1, and localhost, nothing seems to work :(  I found the code 
which generates this message and it appears that the response received 
after sending in the "\n\r.\n\r" is either null or not 250.  Has anyone 
had similar experience or uses qmail as their SMTP server?

thanks,
chuck
