There is of course a different, perhaps more serious, problem with using
localhost as SMTP server setting in the MUA (see previous thread): It
could mean that dynamically assigned IP addresses are listed in
Received, and some receiver's don't like that; they block all messages
from addresses in dynamic ranges, at least if they belong to a major ISP.
I'd be interested in hearing how other people address this issue. Is
there a way out of it at all, except from obtaining a fixed IP address
from the ISP, or send messages via their mail server by reconfiguring
the MUA e.g. after moving a machine from the office to an Internet
connection @ home?
