Hello,
Recently I have installed stable on a few old optiplex workstations that
have an AMD graphics card. On first boot I always get a black screen and
have to:
1. Enable non-free
2. Install firmware-linux-nonfree. Even though the netinstall media is
firmware-10.2.0-amd64-netinst.iso

They all bounced with "Your message was not delivered successfully"

Add
ipv6.disable=1
to the grub kernel/linux line to disable ipv6 (without recompiling the kernel)
but it cannot be the problem.

In one of the first responses to your email, Camaleon said that there
were three possible culprits:
1. The resolvconf program
2. The network-manager daemon
3. DHCP clients

sftp is to ftp what ssh is to telnet. You did not have a telnet shell
