Bill, Thanks for the response. Here is the last entry in the maillog file: Sep 29 03:01:48 src@rc_gcux sendmail[1204]: i8T81lo5001204: to=root, delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=31632, relay=[127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1] This makes sense that the log says what it does since I have sendmail_enable="NONE". What I am asking is if there is a way to not have this file at all since there is no need to send amy mail of any kind from this server. Make sense? Thanks again for any and all help.
