Okay, I may be being wooden-headed, but how can I get demon's SMTP ETRN mail
working on linux, (SuSE 6.2), because all the information Demon support guys
are allowed to give if you ring them up is :

Send an ETRN command to the SMTP server (mail1.sbs.demon.net) and it works.

This seems very similar to the paragraph in Linux Unleashed regarding SCSI
tape drives : something along the lines of "they work."

Please could somebody help me, as I am stuck with Demon at present, and I am
not really a linux newbie (have been using linux over 1 year now).
