[22:04:10] <jaclinuxhelp> i think it is not respecting the parameter, cause mail gets out on another address, not the one i ve choosen [22:04:17] *** nonsequitir has quit IRC [22:05:05] <jaclinuxhelp> it is going out thorugh my default gw, not the ip i ve choosen [22:05:14] <jaclinuxhelp> it is like that? or am i wrong ?
