Problems with Ultimail/sendmail

Can anyone suggest a solution to this problem?

I have Ultimail set up under OS/2 Warp (correctly as far as I can tell).
I can happily establish a SLIP connection to my service provider via the
Network Dialler app., then start up Ultimail and read any new mail (the only
problem being that I am always prompted for the mail server and password).

However, whenever I attempt to send outgoing mail (either replying to incoming
or unsolicited) it appears that the sendmail program fails to see the tcp/ip
stack and exits. Outgoing mail then ends up in the send queue.

Whenever I establish a SLIP connection, something recognises that a tcp/ip
connection has been made, and Ultimail/sendmail attempts to send the queued
messages, but it again fails ("Tcp/ip not running" or something) and sendmail
exits.

Any help would be appreciated. I believe I am running the latest Ultimail
(retrieved from the ftp site).

Thanks,

Dennis
