Re: Sendmail problems and new ghostscript debian packages...



For the sendmail problem, I tried all possible combination for sendmail
configuration and still does not work. In some configuration, it could
hang the network by opening too many sendmail sessions with UCLA's smtp
hosts. None of the configuration will let local deliveries besides
forwarding to a foreign hosts.

Secondly, where is the none-free directory on the ftp site.
