HI,
I believe the problem with the mail is that sendmail won't start, I get the
following in the mailog when I try.

Mar 16 00:04:51 blondie sendmail[7090]: unable to qualify my own domain name
(blondie) -- using short name
Mar 16 00:04:53 blondie sendmail[7090]: alias database /etc/aliases rebuilt
by root
Mar 16 00:04:53 blondie sendmail[7090]: /etc/aliases: 40 aliases, longest 10
bytes, 395 bytes total
Mar 16 00:07:11 blondie sendmail[7198]: My unqualified host name (blondie)
unknown; sleeping for retry

Guess the problem is I don't have a domain name, I just want this system to
allow me to pick up mail from workstations on the network.

Do I need sendmail or any other mail server running to do this?

Obviously I can send and receive mail as in KMail I have put in to sue the
Optusnet mail server.

Cheers,
