The When sending out e-mail the user gets an error message Return to Sender and in the /var/adm/message file multiple error messages: Vague(machine_name) sendamil[5072]AA0507:SYSERR:net hang reading from grumpy(server):connection timed out. Also the processes on the server just continues to try to sendmail and it slows up the machine, so I have to kill those sendamil processes. I wonder if any one can help me this problem. It happens every time mail is sent out from that particular workstation. Your HELP in this matter will be GREATLY appreciated. Until then have a HAPPY THANKGIVING!!!!!! -Tanya
