     I'm not sure how or if it will be possible for anyone to
     answer my sendmail/firewall question...  I'll try to 
     explain things as best I can.

     A friend helped me set up a firewall *and* move my connections
     from my IDSL router back to my hub.   After umpteen hours we 
     finally had things flawless firewall-wise.  We moved this
     host (tao.thought.org) from its real IP to 10.0.0.2.

     From my DNS server sage.thought.org AKA ns1.thought.org (10.0.0.1),
     mail only got through if I used my FQDN.  Mail to "kline@thought.org"
     either bounced or was off somewhere.  

     Yes, I did add 10.0.0.1 to my access file ad marked it RELAY.  There
     seemed to be a problem with my /etc/namedb/s/db.thought.org entries.
     Either that or with my sendmail.cf on NS1.     Or then again, 
     possibly something else!

     If anyone can grok all of this and has any ideas, I'd be much
     obliged for some ideas.

     gary
