BY not providing reverse lookup, philonline.com is, in practice,
forcing you to use its smarthost relay for outgoing mail.

I suspected all along that the problem is with philonline. I will talk to them again once they have fixed their phone line for custom care.

If it matters to any *future* posting you make, though ... in the ping part, what is "Peter"? What host are you actyually trying to ping
there?

it's in /etc/hosts:
202.95.238.2 philonline.com Peter
202.78.74.68 webcard.skyinet.net Pedro

that way I do not have to remember the dot DN

Regards
