One might think that at first. But here's some more info:
I originally had the host set as  myhost.com, (as an example). I
used the correct host name in real life. Also yyy.xxx were
substituted below for the real IP address.


On IRC I received the following suggestions and their results:

mail.myhost.com 

this yielded: host not found

in6.myhost.com 

this yielded: {'twcook@iswt.com': (550, '... Not a local
address')} 

out1.myhost.com

Error Type: SMTPConnectError
Error Value: (450, 'unauthorized interface for 24.113.89.xxx')

out2.myhost.com

Error Type: SMTPConnectError
Error Value: (450, 'unauthorized interface for 24.113.yyy.xxx')

out3.myhost.com

Error Type: SMTPSenderRefused
Error Value: (550, 'Access denied', 'twcook@myhost.com')

out4.myhost.com

Error Type: SMTPConnectError
Error Value: (450, 'unauthorized interface for 24.113.89.xxx')

out5.myhost.com

Error Type: SMTPConnectError
Error Value: (450, 'unauthorized interface for 24.113.89.xxx')


The out3 attempt looks like it wants to work but twcook is not an
authorized user. 
BUT! I can go into a terminal session in the /home/twcook
directory and type;

mail twcook@iswt.com and enter a message and it's mailed to this
address okay.

I did confirm that sendmail is using port 25.


Any idea what I need to change so that Zope will have permission
to send mail?
