You could run "pw lock username" on the account and then add something like: username@pyramus.com 550 Account locked to your /etc/mail/access (if you're running Sendmail). When it's time to unlock the account just do a "pw unlock username" and then remove the entry from your Sendmail access file. *Don't forget to rebuild the access file hash for Sendmail.* > Thanks > -- > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > The Internet Rescue Company - http://www.pyramus.com > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > Blake R.
