People using mh and exmh have reported problems with sending mail in the
default setup in Fermi Linux. To fix do the following.

In the file /usr/lib/mh/mtstailor, the last line looks like this:

servers: localhost \01localnet

Dan Yocum also reports that sendmail on the local machine is configured in
such a way that it will not relay mail (a rudimentary method to thwart
spammers from using your machine as a relay point).

You should change the line to look like this:

servers: fnal.fnal.gov \01localnet

or whatever your local mail server is.
