Thanks for the prompt response.  To summarize, Galen suggested I check
for sendmail running, and I checked and not it's not.  I had disabled
sendmail long ago.

However, I realize what's happening.  I did what Markd suggested, and
guess what?  The qmail smtpd server did come up.  I forgot to remove
the inetd entry before trying to invoke tcprules.  Duhhhh.

Thanks again.  BTW, Yahoo! is still slow in receiving these things.  I
went to the archives to read your responses.  I still haven't gotten
anything in my Yahoo! account.  Oh well.  I guess you get what you pay
for.

Thanks again.
