I did use the mailertable until a few years ago. Here's what I had. What I never understood was how the "%1" in the rely entry/line worked. t Now that I (somehow) have kline@thought.org -> kline@tao.thought.org, I'm relectant to mess with things. What *may* have fixed thing was when I put [bck] this mapping into virtuserable. ---I do have scripts to re-pinit stuff, but it didn't work until I did a full reset (reboot). Thanks for this1! Anybody else know how to do change this and reinitialize??? gary Re: ## ## List of domains (possibly wildcarded) and destination mailers ## #.my.domain xnet:%1.my.domain #uuhost1.my.domain suucp:uuhost1 #.bitnet smtp:relay.bit.net # (21dec03 1730) # thought.org tao.thought.org .thought.org relay:[%1.thought.org] -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
