It started on an upgrade a while bacm. It appears to be related to the "check_mail" feature that got turned om in the default sendmail.cf. Now as to a solutin, I have not worked through that. But I would think that changing the sendmail config would be the trick. There is a section on that in the Handbook. BYW, if you get it fixed, I would love to hear how. -- "They that would give up essential liberty for temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -- Benjamin Franklin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
