Ok Folks,

I have tried everything to get sendmail to work on my FreeBSD platform. 
I have been asking questions for the last month - I really need some 
help here!

I have a machine that sits on the internet using an ISDN connection.  I 
have checked the router; the machine is accessible from the outside 
world.  Try it gandalf.otdc.com - I am even able to telnet to port 25.  
I have checked the MX records and do not see any problem.  So, it has to 
be something with FreeBSD.  I have a Linux box sitting right next to 
this one and do not have any problems with the Linux box.

One thing that is different between the two platforms:
when I execute hostname on the Linux box it only gives the hostname 
without the domain.  (i.e. gandalf)  However, on the FreeBSD machine it 
gives the FQDN (i.e. gandalf.otdc.com).  Now, on the Linux box when I 
execute domainname I get the domain and on FreeBSD I get nothing.

Is anyone out there using FreeBSD to recieve mail?  I am running the 
latest version released by Walnut Creek.  I need some place to look!  
HELP!

Joe
