mutt

I'm using mutt&postfix on CentOS 6.2:

mutt-1.5.20-2.20091214hg736b6a.el6_1.1.x86_64
postfix-2.6.6-2.2.el6_1.x86_64

When I try to send mail to my company mailbox, I receive an error:

mutt -s "test" [email protected] < /home/mail.txt

error from postfix:

: host out1.ourcompany.com[10.30.17.100] said: 555 Syntax error (in reply to MAIL FROM command)

Then I try to use service sendmail as SMTP server, but also failed:

**----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- (reason: 555 Syntax error) ----- Transcript of session follows ----- ... while talking to out1.ourcompany.com.:

MAIL From: SIZE=667 <<< 555 Syntax error 554 5.0.0 Service unavailable**

Any body can tell me why? Thanks!!!! I can make sure DNS is OK, and I set realname "root@myserver" in /etc/Muttrc

How to sent mail from emacs? I found this There are two ways to send the message. C-c C-s (mail-send) sends the message and marks the mail buffer unmodified, but leaves that buffer selected so that you can modify the message (perhaps with new recipients) and send it again.
