qmail's rcpthosts question
 
Hi linux folks!

I installed a qmail server at home and I can send messages to my friens but they can't reply to my because my ip changes each time I get connected.
If I add my ip address to my locals and rcpthosts files, my friends can send messages to me but I have to edit these files each time I get connected.

Is there a way to do this automatically?

The ip addresses I get are of the form 200.65. so I added this to my locals and rcpthosts files but it didn't work.
I thought that the . was a wildcard.

Maybe I have to add the whole range of ip's, hehe.

Thanks for your help!

Why not sign up for a service like no-ip.com or dyndns and get a DNS entry that is updated automatically then you can put that in rcpthosts.
