OK... so I got NetBSD to run on my 386 and I got it to SLIP... now I find 
that I can send mail but not receive it.  That is, I can use the mail 
command to send somebody a message, but his replies never reach me.

I can get my mail from the same SLIP account from a machine at work 
running Windoze.  I wonder what I'm doing wrong.
