Sendmail and dns are working fine now (finally) but I need the win98 boxes to retrieve from both the fbsd box and my isp's mail account (imap). I have added the new mail server to netscape and put in the user account but it doesn't seem to work. No errors, it just doesn't connect. Do I need to do anything special on the freebsd box? I tried adding the win98 box to a .rhost in my home directory but that didn't do it. All the boxes are on the same lan and I can telnet from the win98 boxes to the fbsd box by name.
