Thanks for reading,
I need certain shell scripts to email me after they are done running. I've installed ssmtp to forward to my internal SMTP server. I have a working ssmtp config on a Gentoo system that works just fine, but on CentOS it's not working. Here's a bounce message:

DNS does work, and I have an MX record to my internal SMTP server, even though the ssmtp doesn't use DNS/MX records to forward email. I've also tried turning sendmail on/off as well. Where else should I look?? A typical command I'm using to email from the shell is this: mail -s "Test de Backups" foo@bar.com < /dev/null ...
Any help, most appreciated!
Thanks!
