Hello from ESIX....
Well our usenet system is now up full time.  The last sysadm of this system
had an experimental filesystem the the computer which for the last
8 weeks sent the system down almost dailey.  Now that we have a production
Rev C system up in its place we will not keep missing your postings and your
e-mail.

About our sendmail .... It was written so that it did all of its processing
(starting jobs... etc) then checked to see if there was anything for it to
do... you can see how that messes up proformance :-) but it has been fixed,
but it has not been decided about what the patch will be handled
(i.e. put fix in Rev D?, or send it out?) 
If you do not need sendmail comment it out in /etc/rc2.d/S90netsetup so that
it does not start.
