Yeah, I'm pretty sure, that _is_ the problem. As you are using sendmail
(on your local machine) your 'mail server' _is_ reachable. The Mails
gets delivered to sendmail.

sendmail by itself may have problems sending mail, without a network.

Maybe someone with more sendmail experience could tell you more.


Using an external SMTP server should solve those problems instantly, as
Evo tries to reach the SMTP -- and lets the mail in Outbox until that
could be done.
