Just to stick my nose in on this one for a moment. I would in the past, now, and will continue to vote for sendmail. Just because another projgram is newer does not mean that it is any easer to crack, it just means that the holes have not been discovered yet. sendmail is not my favorit to work on, but I will never trade it for anything else. -Sean ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sean J.
