Hi All,

I was hoping someone might throw me a few pointers on the following ;

I have FreeBSD 6.1 setup, running Apache / PHP / MySQL etc
In aliases I specify my most used ISP pop address and all mail for
root gets sent there from Charlie - this works great.

I am testing an osc cart and the two option for mail from the cart
are SMTP and mail() - guessing php mailer here.

I get absolutely nowhere with the SMTP method with mailing causing

Jan 16 22:13:24 rackserver sm-mta[82321]: l0GMDOII082321: localhost
[127.0.0.1] did not issue MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN during connection to Daemon0

however with the mail() method I can see mail for admin (specified in osc
cart)
appearing in /var/mail/admin

(editted this line in my /usr/local/etc/php.ini ; sendmail_path =
/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i)

and can read it and it contains what I expect however in my /home/admin
I have a .forward file (theres also an mbox) specifying the same most used
ISP pop address but mail never makes it there?

If I log into to console as admin I can read the mail and it gets saved to
mbox
but my .forward is ignored. Where am I going wrong ?

Thanks !!!
