	See appended.  I was ssh'd into sage|ns1 and did this.  On the
	nameserver I have sendmail_submit_enable="NO"; that's the only 
	diff between the two grep'd outputs. 

	If DHCP had timed out on the evening of the 18th/morning of the
	19th, would|could  that have caused my prolems?  I rebooted both
	servers almost simultaneously and saw on tao that DHCP  was having 
	some kind of difficulty.  When tao came up I tried ssh'ing
	around.  No problem. As root in /var/log I did a grep -i dhcp
	but didn't see anything.  Anyway, mail started flowing across 
	and I didn't notice that mail had *quit* by the afternoon of the
	19th.   By then I was heading out.
