sendmail error
 
:newbie:

I am working with a perl cgi script which will send the contents of a form to a specific address. I know the form works because I also have output sent to a text file. The problem is this: sendmail is not sending the messages…here is a sample error message from the mail log:

how can I change the nobody@linux.local to a valid account? That is, is there a cnfiguration that I am forgetting? Thanks in advance!!
