I have had my provider add a MX record to the DNS database to point all mail for their domain(softcity.com), to my machine(chiba.netxn.com). I am having trouble understanding what I need to change in sendmail in order for the mail for the bbs to queue up and be ready for downloading. I will be acting as a passive UUCP host, I will never call the bbs, they will call me once per day to toss mail and news. I am running BSD/OS 1.1 and my sendmail is at the default, although I have upgraded to the .9 version that BSDI has on their ftp server. I could also use some UUCP help as well, I have the default installation off of the cdrom. I am new to sendmail config files and am finding them somewhat cryptic. I also have read the O'reilly book on managing uucp and usenet. Thanks in advance. Bradley White <brad@chiba.netxn.com>
