Check to see what router address you have given the TCP/IP control panel. 
If you cannot reach any services on the LINUX box, then this could be it. 
But if you can reach the LINUX box with say, telnet, or ftp, then this is
not it. 

Also, if e-mail is the only thing not working, then try manually
connecting to the mail server with telnet, if you are using LINUX with
POP3 mail.  You can do this by telneting to the server at port 100.  Then
type in USER your_login_name, then PASS your_password.  LIST will list the
e-mails, and QUIT gets you out.
