Hi Mark,

I restarted sendmail by doing a "ps -ef|grep sendmail", then killing the
sendmail process (ie kill xxxx); after this I issued a "sendmail -bd -q10m"
command to start it up again.

The IP address is correct, webbot is the local name for the machine, and
neophytte.mine.nu is the address given via dyndns.org to allow external
people to connect.

Looking through previous logs (these ones are from October 6 2004) an
example entry looks like:

Oct  6 15:03:55 webbot sendmail[13286]: i9673tIo013286:

Thanks
