Subject: smtp local email setup

I'm running:
1. Pine 4.58
2. on Windows 2000 on an office network
3. with a local (local to my computer) Pop3/smtp server from Argosoft.com (version 1.8)
 
The email system is setup as a test environment for software that sends out email (usually to Outlook but also to SMTP).  So I run on a system that is all just configured for local intranet mail without even having a DNS available.
 
The configuration has
 smtp-server=localhost
 inbox-path={mwhitney2/pop3/user=mwhitney2}INBOX
 
The problem is that I can receive mail but I can send mail.
The response when sending is [Mail not sent: User not local.  We don't relay]
 
Is there a configuration change I should make or anything else I could try?
 
Note: The email is being sent to another user as Peter@mwhitney2.  Is there a way to make this work or could I format the address differently to make it work, e.g. Peter@localhost?
 
Thanks

Probably, but not in pine, but in the SMTP server.

You could try peter@localhost. Pine should not complain.
