Hi happy BSDers !
I've just setup FreeBSD 2.1.5 (Wallnut Creek CD) on a 486-33/40Mo RAM.
Until now it has worked fine : the kernel is stable, the network
layer too (ftp, samba), but I didn't manage using sendmail to receive mail :
I can send mail to other boxes but i can't receive incoming or local mails.

/root% mail root
