    I did this and did get a negative object number which I then booted.  This
    didn't solve the mailing out problem, so I tried it again and got another
    negative object number (the first was -50, the second was -51, the third
    was -52, so I imagine this would continue ad infinitum) which I then
    booted.  What now?

    I checked with my sys admin who says the nameserver is definitely not down.

    I examined $network on Lambda Moo and compared their settings to my
    settings, and my moo has everything set to our specs the way they have
    theirs set to their specs.  Why won't my moo send mail when people do
    @request?  This is really a stumper, and I'm not sure what to check next to
    solve the problem.

    Thank you for your suggestions.
