It will be a dedicated machine, i.e. no other stuff will be running there except sendmail, at least for now. I'm talking to Internet through a gateway. The filtering on this gateway is currently set up so that it only listens to my machine on the port 25. My FreeBSD machine is also open for FTP and Telnet sessions but only for several internal (local) hosts. QUESTION: Do I need any other ports open on the gateway in order to send the mail in and out? Right now, I can't do it. P.S. my machine IS connected to our DNS server and recognizes the outer mailhosts correctly, it just seems to be unable to connect to them. Thanks for any advice. I'm not currently subscribed to majordomo-users list, so please respond directly. -Serge splyaski@cmp.com
