Cannot send email via mutt

[denniux]

Hello.
I use CentOS 5.3 and I am trying to send a simple email through mutt.
My command is:

echo "test" | mutt -s "test email" myemail address
I have no errors displayed but the email never goes out of the machine. Also the /var/log/maillog is empty.
I can see the queued email with:

sendmail -bp

So emails never go out.

This PC is connected to a network which the gateway is another Linux machine which is configured to be the default gateway in my /etc/resolv.conf as nameserver.

I would appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Dennis

is sendmail running? is your ISP allowing outbound SMTP connections? can you make a connection to the SMTP server you are trying to reach via telnet?

Hello.
Yes, sendmail is running.
I can connect through telnet and send email.
But I am not connecting to my ISP directly, but to a local Linux server which is the gateway of the local network. That server can send emails via mutt, but my Fedora 12 PC cannot.
