For whatever reason, mail wasn't coming in : it was going out. |

I edited /etc/conf.d/netmount to comment 'dhcpcd' & now all's well : |

it was listed by 'etc-update', so I assumed it needed authorising |

| 22 |
but I don't want DHCP running as a daemon. |
| 23 |
Also, the router connection is as before & 'sit0' has disappeared. |
