**MESSAGE FROM THE TPC.INT SINKHOLE** We regret to inform you that the phone number you attempted to reach is not currently being served by a remote printer operator. Your original message is attached so that you may send it by alternative means. We hope to have coverage in this area -- perhaps you know somebody who could operate a remote printer server? Does your ISP provide fax coverage in your local area? If not, perhaps they would benefit by setting up a fax server and joining TPC.INT. Speak with your ISP and show them why they might want to come online as a TPC "cell": <A HREF="http://www.tpc.int/servers/salespitch.html"><A HREF="http://www.tpc.int/servers/salespitch.html</A">http://www.tpc.int/servers/salespitch.html</A</A>> It's possible of course that you have not composed the TPC.INT-style address correctly, so here's a few examples. Note that we do not use international dialing codes but we do require the country codes. Example1: remote-printer.Arlington_Hewes/Room_403@441813434622.iddd.tpc.int (to send a fax to Arlington Hewes in Room 403, at the FAX number, in England (where the country code is 44), of +44 181 3434622) Example2: remote-printer.Paul_Katz/The_Manor@19025842817.iddd.tpc.int (to send a fax to Paul Katz in The Manor at the FAX number, in North America (where the country code is 1) of +1 902 584 2817) If you're still unclear on the address format we require, please send for a copy of the FAQ, or visit our WWW pages. *****PLEASE NOTE******* TPC.INT does not consider unsolicited commercial mass mailings an acceptable use of the network. Individuals suspected of abusing this policy will be banned from using it pending investigation. We regret that such measures are necessary, but abuse of TPC.INT can force cells to close, and must be prevented when possible. Please be considerate - TPC.INT is for everyone. *********************** Regards, Mr. Arlington Hewes tpcadmin@info.tpc.int The TPC.INT Subdomain <A HREF="http://www.tpc.int/"><A HREF="http://www.tpc.int/</A">http://www.tpc.int/</A</A>> ************************************************** *** FOR GENERAL INFORMATION *** *** <A HREF="mailto:tpcfaq@info.tpc.int">mailto:tpcfaq@info.tpc.int</A> *** *** FOR A LIST OF CURRENT COVERAGE *** *** <A HREF="mailto:tpccover@info.tpc.int">mailto:tpccover@info.tpc.int</A> *** *** TO REPORT A PROBLEM (read the FAQ first!) *** *** <A HREF="mailto:support@info.tpc.int">mailto:support@info.tpc.int</A> *** ************************************************** </PRE> <PRE> I need to set up a mailserver for my network and I don't know where to start.

Okay, how about a little more info?? Do you have linux installed already?? Is it SuSE linux?? to see if sendmail is running, try these as root: ps fax | grep sendmail --this checks the process list for any programs with 'sendmail' in their name and: endmail -bv root@localhost --this tells you where an email to 'root@localhost' will be delivered if these commands work, then you are 900f the way there :-) mail the list with these results and let me know if I am on the right track for you. mc David wrote:
