Mail services not working

Hello, all.

We currently have three UNIX boxes run Reliant Unix, a System V Release 4
variant. Mail can't be sent out of one of the boxes to anywhere outside the box.

For a client we use the mail command. I am not sure how to determine the message transfer daemon that is running.

When mail is sent to a user off the box, the message appears to have been sent but it never arrives.

I checked and compared the following files to the systems that are working and they are identical.


/etc/resolv.conf
/etc/mail/mailcnfg


DNS is not running on any of the UNIX boxes but on an NT server.
Any ideas what to look for ? ANything else that I should be checking?
Thanks for any help..
