Yes, ABC.DEF is 192.168. The network lies behind a hardware firewall,
and I don't run any kind of server other than NFS and ssh - at least I
didn't until I set up logcabin, and I didn't intend to.
What you've made me realise is that I shouldn't be running sendmail at
all.
Now to get rid of it. Trying to uninstall the entire "mail server"
category via the FC4/Gnome Add/Remove Applications
[system-config-packages] function is failing because, the application
says, Evolution needs spamassassin; a few other seemingly nonsensical
requirements are listed.
Note to self: must become more familiar with yum.
Ta to all for assistance - I'll be back with more questions. Off to
Windows for the next couple of hours (Minitab required for my statistics
papers).
