Have you setup your MX records properly? Email with the outside world will not work unless your DNS is setup properly.

Try setting up a another system locally such as a Sun or linux system and try to exchange mail with it.

On a Solaris system when you enter the command "mailx -v " it will record how the mail system is talking to your email server and record the conversation. This is usually very helpful in finding the problem.

The O'Reilly Sendmail book isa great reference.

Thanks Norm
