That makes sense. 128.134.28 is indeed not a valid network address.
Nevertheless, sendmail knows what to do with it so Cobalt's error
checking must be stopping the addition.

	You could add it manually to your servers /etc/mail/access
file though as sendmail knows exactly what to do with it. The format
is:

	    128.134.28 		REJECT
	    128.134             DISCARD
	    128.134.28          ERROR:"550 Eat more bannas"
	    etc.

	I don't do this kind of thing on our Cobalt's so I'll have
to leave the nuances of how to do it, and whether or not the GUI
will overwrite it, to someone else. But sendmail itself will handle
this quite nicely.

	Peace be with you,
