Less that a second of the logs is shown below for /var/log/maillog.  The
/var/log/security log is empty and there is no /secure.  Is there
somewhere else to look?

This maillog does not show the address info, I guess since I changed the
access to reject anything from this computer.

Can you tell anything from this  or would you like me to provide more info?

Thanks
Randy
