- I'm completely stumped. I have a microvax running Mt Xinu. I changed
- its name a few days ago and sendmail broke. I can send local mail, I
- can receive mail, I can't send mail. When I try it just hangs on
- the DATA part.
-
-
- If I try to mail something I get:
-
-
- # echo foo | mail -v mrd@sparkie
- mrd@sparkie... Connecting to mailhost (ether)...
