My sendmail/DNS server is a 486/66 pc. I am running BSD/OS 2.0.  
The problem is as follows: 

A handful of people on our network are complaining that they do not receive 
certain email messages. They also claim that certain messages that they send 
out are not received by the intended recipient.  This is only happening to a 
handful of people. Some are POP users and some are not. As far as I can tell, 
the only people that have reported this problem are all from the same 
department (if that matters). I have checked the server and the individual 
machines and cannot see any visible problems.  The majority of the email users
(including myself) are not having any problems at all. There does not seem to 
be much of a pattern here.

I do not have much experience with sendmail. If anyone out there can offer me
any advice, I would surely appreciate it!

Thanks,
Bob Tisljar
