Im very new to BSDI and I just purchased BSDI 2.1, I wonder if anyone 
could tell me what im doing wrong ?.

I have BSDI 2.1 and a 509 3com card a linkbuilder 24 port 3com hub and
at the
moment only only one NT workstation connected to the hub also.

Im trying to get email to work via Eudora pro, on the BSDI system from
NT
I added a user stephen with adduser and password etc.
I set Eudora with the pop server address stephen@its.com password etc.
I also entered the names for the its.com and sysconint35 for NT in
the BSDI host file and NT host files as I have no DNS running at the
moment.

Then I log in on the BSDI system console email to stephen and go back
to 
Eudora and run NT Eudora and get that mail no problem.
 
The problem is on Eudora sending to stephen@its.com, first setting
SMTP
to mail.its.com fail to get the network address so I changed it too
its.com

That I tried sending mail with the Eudora mail smtp setting set to
its.com and 
its seems to work but the mail nether gets to stephen.

I think i need to set a mail delivery up on BSDI some where if so
where ? and with
what ?. 
I want to setup login stephen to send and receive mail for
stephen@its.com 
login mike to send and receive mail for mike@its.com etc via 
Eudora mail on the NT system . . .

The last is connect a cisco 2500 router to my T1 via uunet, then ill
get the DNS
server via them.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.
