Hello:

     I've managed to sucessfully install 386BSD on a 486 33 machine and
have it sitting on a SLIP behind a SUN SPARC Server.  Everything seems OK
I can send mail, ftp, telnet ... But am having a h*ll of a problems re-
ceving mail.  Everytime I try (and I have tried to figure it out by
playing with my sendmail.cf) I get mail bounced back.  (i.e. I can not
receive mail.

     The error messages I get are:

>>> HELO mh-slip.educom.edu
<<< 553 mh-slip.educom.edu config error:  mail loops back to myself
554 < marco@mh-slip.educom.edu>... Service unavailable

     Any suggestions, ideas etc....   Thanks in adcance for the help.
