Mail configuration with Gnats

Mail configuration with Gnats

[Timothy Sorrentino]

    I'm having trouble with my mail server rejecting the problem report
notification emails that are trying to be sent out when I create a PR
through GnatsWeb.  The email that GnatsWeb creates is from
gnats@localhost.localdomain and contains an email relay to the correct
recipients.  My mail server rejects the message, however, reporting that
relaying is denied to spammers.  Everything else seems to be working
correctly - I'm using GnatsWeb 4.0 beta and the GnatsWeb interface on
RedHat 7.2  Anyone else run into this problem?  I'm not sure how to
reconfigure Gnats, Gnatsweb to substitute a valid email address for
'gnats@localhost.localdomain' so my mail server will accept it or to
make it a direct email rather than a relay.  Any suggestions?  The
returned message is below.
TIA, Timothy Sorrentino
