2.4  "Could not open socket.library".

Your socket.library is not installed correctly. Do the following:

- Assign inet: to Amitcp:, like this: "Assign inet: amitcp:"
- Create a directory called "libs" in Amitcp: (if it doesn't exist
  already).
- Copy socket.library to Amitcp:libs.
- Setup the SOCKETCONFIG file in envarc:/env: as described in the
  socket.library documentation.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
2.5  "domain name missing.." when sending mail.

Your socket.library is not correctly configured. Create a file in envarc:
and env:. Here's my file:

UID=100 GID=100 USER=pettern DOMAIN=icenet.no UMASK=002

Replace the USER with you username, and DOMAIN with your domain,
and it should work fine.
