Please DON'T send HTML e-mails to the list.  Most people on this list use
unix mailers that don't read HTML.  And most will just ignore the message.

Is the 2nd unix box on a different subnet, and are all the other computers
on the same subnet as machine 2?

If the answer to both of these is yes.  Then I believe that you need to set
box 2 with gateway enabled in /etc/rc.conf, and set that machine as the
gateway to all the other boxes on the subnet.
