But there is no detail. I checked the mail and sendmail mannual but find nothing to help me. I hope to get your help from this list. And maybe you can tell me whether it's possible or not. I mean, I am going to generate the database operate code at my WIN95 then send the code as an email to my perl script locates at my FreeBSD box to operate the database such as create or drop etc. I think if I can do this, I can do many many useful operations at the remote site. Is this useful or is there any other method? Best regaurds! --xiyuan
