Date: Mon, 24 Jul 1995 13:13:42 -0500 From: Steve Rose Sender: questions-owner@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk I'm looking for some help on setting up FreeBSD 2.05 and mail. Currently, I have a standalone machine with a ppp connection to the net. I have all (most) of the ip services running fine, such as ftp, telnet, www, etc and I am able to SEND mail just fine. The problem I'm having is that I'm unable to RECEIVE any mail on this machine. I've searched the Usenet archives and relavent FAQ's with no success. Can someone point me in the right direction or provide some assistance? BTW, I'm a sysadmin type, not a programmer, so I don't have the skills to hack anything beyond the basics . Thanks Steve.
