So far I have figured out most things on ubuntu linux--(Debian based). I can get mail *out* from any acct; but not in. According to my sendmail /var/log/maillog, the connection is refused: Jun 19 10:18:50 sage sm-mta[60201]: j5F3qGbQ035034: to=, delay=4+13:26:14, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=22800576, relay=ethic.thought.org., dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by ethic.thought.org.

Is there any Postfix "allow" file that is causing this ``Connection refused'' log entry? Anybody have any clues? thanks, gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
