In any case, >simtel20 is not available to us out here in net-land. Sorry. >(I alsso have never been able to get mail through to you on simtel20.) Sounds like your host table is out of date. SIMTEL20 changed its IP address several months ago. You should complain to your host administrator. The fact that you can't get mail through indicates that there is a serious problem on your host. This this: ftp 26.2.0.74 That will bypass the outdated host table and should connect to us.
