What do I need to change so it does run? When I restart the system,
qmail-send and qmail-stmp both show up with as being managed by supervise,
but you and Charles both say it is not running. What gives? Also,
according to Life with qmail, a properly configured qmail system should
have four daemons running, yet I obviously had only two. Where do the
other two processes begin running?

Thank you for the pointer. I did indeed have singles instead of backs.

Thanks for the clarification.

It was, Yes. My /etc/hosts file had the lines:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.bsd.local
192.168.0.102 gyrfalcon gyrfalcon.bsd.local
But I've since changed localhost to gyrfalcon, and commented out the
internal net address (192.x.x.x).

Once I get getmail to work delivering mail to my Maildir mailbox, I won't
need to accept mail via SMTP for the summer, no. BUT I will need/want to
use SMTP when I get back to school in the fall, and have an IP address
from which I would want to send/recieve mail (i.e. cary@[150.x.x.x]).
Is rcpthosts the correct place to put this address, or will it automaticly
be used (it is assigned by DHCP)?
