I have both at my home and my university office a Dell pentium with both
WIN95 and RH 5.2 installed.  My university department is networked using an
NT server and mail service is microsoft exchange.  At my office I can use
exchange to directly access my mail if WIN95 is running or if Linux is
running I use Netscape 4.07 in POP3 mode.  At home I can use dial-up
networking and exchange if I have WIN95 running or Netscape 4.07 in POP3
mode with a PPP connection to the university and the department NT server.
I can also, if I choose, use Netscape 4.5 on my office computer in POP3 mode
while running WIN95.  Here is the problem:

With exchange/WIN95 in the office, Netscape/POP3/WIN95 in the office, and
exchange/dial-up/WIN95 at home I can send and receive an e-mail to/from
anyone, including the several listservs I belong to.  However, with
Netscape/POP3/Linux I apparently cannot get a posting through to any of the
listservs, including this one.  The mail is sent and nothing more happens.
The posting is never posted, I get no error message.  Obviously there is
something either about Netscape for Linux or the Netscape/Linux combination
that is the problem.  Has anyone else had this problem?  Any ideas for
solutions?
