How is LISTSERV supposed to get incoming email?  Is it via sendmail
or some other email program?

Basically I would make sure that the program that is supposed to be
listening on port 25 on the LISTSERV box is running.  If it is
running I'd look in the sendmail (or whatever) logs to make sure that
the mail you're sending is making it that far at least, and also to
see if it records any errors transferring the messages to LISTSERV.

You may also want to look at the aliases file(s) to make sure that
they are set up properly to hand off mail to LISTSERV.

Hopefully this is enough to get you started.  Please reply if you
need further assistance or information.

Thanks,
