You say postfix is tossing your mail? I'm going to be so bold as to claim operator error on this one :-) Since postfix is the most reliable and one of the best documented MTA's out there. I cant believe your having problems with postfix. What exactly are the errors its giving in maillog? ============================================================================= -Chris Watson (316) 326-3862 | FreeBSD Consultant, FreeBSD Geek Work: scanner@jurai.net | Open Systems Inc., Wellington, Kansas Home: scanner@deceptively.shady.org | http://open-systems.net ============================================================================= WINDOWS: "Where do you want to go today?"
