Sender address rejected: not owned by user

[time4e]

I want to start getting email notices from my FreeBSD 9.1 server, following this blog http://log.brandonthomson.com/2010/10/freebsd-use-gmail-instead-of-sendmail.html. I started the process of setting up ssmtp, when trying to send a test I get the following error:

ssmtp -v [email]email@mydomain.com[/email]

[->] RCPT TO:<email@mydomain.com>
[<-] 553 5.7.1 <root@mydomain.com>: Sender address rejected: not owned by user [email]email@mydomain.com[/email]

How can I correct this problem?

Thanks,

You'll need to set up a reverse aliases in /usr/local/etc/ssmtp/revaliases. See ssmtp(8) man page.

For example:

root:email@mydomain.com:smtp.gmail.com:587

@cpu82, I have updated /usr/local/etc/ssmtp/revaliases and it worked!

Thanks
