Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.33L2.0205161100260.3338-100000@pali.cps.cmich.edu> (raw)


I am trying mail. I am using the /mail/lib files remotemail, rewrite
and smtpd.conf from v3 (as it works correctly there). Sending mail
out from box works but incoming mail has a problem shown below.
Rewrite file is also included.
