I have accounts on two different systems tcp/ip'd together across
an Ethernet backbone. Neither node is on the backbone, but the
networks they are on are gated to the backbone. On my home system,
where I have sysadmin privileges, the remote system is in my
/etc/hosts file. On the remote system, where I'm a guest, my
home system has not been put in their /etc/hosts file despite
numerous requests. I can ftp and telnet from the remote to my
home system by using explicit decimal dot addressing. My problem is,
how do I mail stuff to myself by the same method?
TIA
