Nmap finished: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 2.211 seconds
Either: 1. mail server is down 2. firewall is blocking incoming connections 3. this server doesn't actually accept mail
just guessing, since I know nothing about ncsu's network1/6/2008 10:34:59 AM |

yeah it wouldn't really matter if she hadn't sent me an email saying she was going to charge me for the books I had. I had sent the books back a few weeks ago and was trying to let her or him know but kept getting kicked back. 1/6/2008 10:56:44 AM |

forward your bounce e-mail to help@ncsu.edu, and ask that it be brought to the attention of the library systems staff. they'll be the ones to get it resolved. let me know if you have any questions. 1/7/2008 12:03:07 AM |
