[H-GEN] mail

[John Boggon]

Hi again,

My next problem concerns mail. I've read all the docs and How-to's I can
find on configuring sendmail but I can't get it to work with my mailbox at
UQ..... What configuration files do I need to modify to enable sendmail to
connect and send and receive mail via pop3 ?. Is sendmail the right
transport agent to use ? I have a feeling that my machines name and alias
setup is incorrect. Messages I send are bounced back with an error saying
something like Dragon (my machine name).dialin.net.uq.edu.au ( the values I
entered when setting up Slackware on my system) is an invalid domain name,
Which is understandable.... So I tried running sendmail with the -f flag
followed by my UQ email address but it made no difference.

Thanks in advance for any help,
John.
