[comp.unix.i386] 386/ix TCP/IP and mail problems

bseller@vpnet.chi.il.us (brad seller) (06/03/90)

I apologize for reposting this question, but I left for an unexpected 2
month trip the day after I posted this the first time, and probably missed
any of the answers.

I have recently installed TCP/IP under 386/ix, and all is working well,
except any incoming (and I believe outgoing as well) mail is either getting
lost or trashed somewhere.  I had absolutely no mail problems until AFTER
installing the TCP/IP package.  I noticed a new version of sendmail being
installed with TCP/IP, but am not sure if this is the problem.  I seem to
remember some traffic about this a long time ago, but did nit.  Could
somebody explain this problem and, more importantly, how to fix it (I do not
want to lose TCP/IP, although that would probably be a quick fix?)

Thanks in advance

Sorry for the repost of this question. but I have been out of town for a
while and probably missed the answers the first time around.

I have installed 386/ix TCP/IP and now all of my incoming/outgoing mail
seems to be either getting lost or trashed.  I noticed a new copy of
sendmail when I installed TCP/IP - is this the culprit?  Any help would be
appreciated, as any of my mail to uunet (a dial connection) seems to be
lost.  All was well until installing TCP/IP
