[svlug] Sendmail/Postfix Problem

[Karl Larsen]

	Hi Eric, no it IS Sendmail/Postfix, but leaning towards Postfix 
on Red Hat Version 8 configuration. You can, if desired go 100% Postfix 
if desired but I do not desire.

	A couple of months ago I used someone elses MTA and then I could 
see my email on lists. So it's in the setup of sendmail or postfix where 
this problem lies.
