I have access to a computer running FreeBSD 1.0 that doesn't receive
E-Mail from other computers.  I have no problems sending mail within
the computer, and sending mail outside.  I am however unable to receive
mail from other computers.

I've been told that I have to set up a daemon to do this.  Could someone
point me in the right direction?

Thanks.
