telnet to your machine's port 25 and type SMTP at it. For example, this
is what you type:
telnet deliberate.com 25
helo deliberate.dom
mail from:<marilyn@???>
rcpt to:<marilyn@???>
data
From:<marilyn@???>
To:<marilyn@???>
Subject:Testing, testing
This is the "real" body
.
quit
Wait for a response before "helo" and after "helo", "mail", "rcpt",
"data" and ".".
See if the message arrives with the headers you typed, or if sendmail
stuck some others on before them.
