Hi,
I'm a bit confused about my mailserver. (Redhat 7.0, Sendmail 8.12-3,
mailscanner, spamassassin, f-prot)

When I dialup to iol I get a fixed ip addy.
Iol's relay(s) then dump my mail to my sendmail to handle.. no problems
there.

However, I would expect to receive mail direct to my box form other sources,
but I dont seem to. Everything comes from relay1.mail.iol.net or
relay2.mail.iol.net.

I do have some ipchains rules, but I dont see anything obvious in the
syslogs to show denied connection attempts.

If I do a 'dig mx nuvotem.com' my fixed IP is listed with the highest
priority, so I would expect to be receiving mails while I'm connected.

Am I missing something ?

Cheers,
Declan
