That's powerful! Yes, trust all your personal data, your freedom and your thoughts to Big Brother, erm, big google. Oops, I didn't say anything, and Thinkpol will take care of me soon. :-) Seriously now. If you want your mails to be "signed" by an "accepted" IP, the suggestion of defining a smart host is not bad. Check if your ISP does provide a mail relay accessible from within your subnet. Then use this MX in your sendmail configuration so that every outgoing mail is just forwarded to that MX and sent from it. At least, that's how I currently keep things (I'm lazy). Simply code something like define(`SMART_HOST', `mx.foo.bar') into your sendmail mc file. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
