This is most distracting but I don't have time to fix up SENDMAIL at the moment. Is there some way I can stop these messages appearing ? I don't mind them going to a log file I just don't want them bouncing up in front of me all the time. Along the same lines the source of the emails which SENDMAIL is having trouble sending is a cron job. It doesn't expliciltly send mail but the output gets mailed to the job owner (me). Is there some way I could adapt the job so that cron doesn't email the output to me ? thanks richard shea ***************************************************** Open Door Ltd PO Box 119-46 Wellington PH 04 384 7639 FX 04 384 7672 ***************************************************** To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
