=> 
=> Have you told your campus main mailer to add your computer on
=> the mailing list so that the main mailer can handle it ? I think due
=> to security reasons, they may not accept unregnized mailers that aren't
=> registered with them.  
=> 
=> In my last school, it took ~10 days for the Networking people 
=> to update my computer in their networking database. 
=> In the mean time, I could send but not receive any mail.
=> The sendmail.cf from SGI works well.
