Can I configure my system's sendmail to the above suggestion that you
wrote? Or am I stuck to using Evolution/Thunderbird with an SMTP setting
and not sendmail as my smtp server? You know what, I once tried
following an article from the BSD Hack book that I have but because of
my poor knowledge in sendmail I could no longer received emails
then...So, I had to reinstall my system again...that was months
ago...Maybe I should try that one again and post it in the ML if I
encounter problems (I know I will)...
Again, is my system clock wrong or yours?
I thought I have mine as correct...

Once again thank you for the response and hoping for responses from you
in the future...
