I've been in this game for 5 years now and I've always been terrified of the dreaded sendmail.cf file. Recently I was forced to read the "Bat" book and frankly, if you spend a day or two trying to understand it, Sendmail configuration is not that tough. I wouldn't want to write a cf file from scratch, but many modifications, even complex ones, are fairly easy once you get over the $!&@#^#() gibberish. It's kind of like learning Morse code. -craig +------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ | Craig Shrimpton | e-mail: craigs@os.com | | Orbit Systems | information: info@os.com | | Worcester, MA 508.753.8776 | http://www.os.com/ | +------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ _/_/_/_/ _/_/_/_/ _/_/_/_/ _/_/_/_/ _/_/_/_/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/_/_/ _/_/_/_/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/_/_/_/ _/ _/ _/_/_/_/ _/_/_/_/ _/ Strategic Systems
