A home-hobbyist tries to set up sendmail. (No, I'm
sticking with sendmail for now for obscure reasons of
my own, please spare us comments on alternatives.)
Mail to redhat gets a "reason: 550 5.0.0 You must use
a valid mail server" in response:

====================================
Presumably this is all DNS related.
Noting:
Reporting-MTA: dns; www.riveralph.com
Received-From-MTA: DNS; paulgillen.riveralph.com
Using nslookup (I know, I know) and setting the server
to an Earthlink DNS server, for www.riveralph.com we
get:
> set type=any
> www.riveralph.com
Server: [207.69.188.185]
Address: 207.69.188.185
Non-authoritative answer:
www.riveralph.com internet address =
66.47.111.74
riveralph.com nameserver = dns11.register.com
riveralph.com nameserver = dns12.register.com
riveralph.com nameserver = www.riveralph.com
dns11.register.com internet address =
216.21.234.76
dns12.register.com internet address =
216.21.226.76
www.riveralph.com internet address =
66.47.111.74
For paulgillen.riveralph.com we get:
> paulgillen.riveralph.com
Server: [207.69.188.185]
Address: 207.69.188.185
Non-authoritative answer:
paulgillen.riveralph.com internet address =
192.168.1.3
riveralph.com nameserver = 207.69.188.186
riveralph.com nameserver = ns.riveralph.com
riveralph.com nameserver = 207.69.188.185
>
Looking for the mail exhanger we get:
> set type=mx
> riveralph.com
Server: [207.69.188.185]
Address: 207.69.188.185
Non-authoritative answer:
riveralph.com MX preference = 10, mail exchanger =
www.riveralph.com
riveralph.com nameserver = ns.riveralph.com
riveralph.com nameserver = 207.69.188.185
riveralph.com nameserver = 207.69.188.186

================================
Anyhow, both the MTAs, "www" the SMTP host and
"paulgillen" the POP3 client, appear to be valid and
resolvable.
What am I missing? (Besides a few marbles for even
attempting this.)
