If someone asks you directions to the airport, and you > hate flying, do you point them to the railway station? For Christ's sake, considering how far off the beaten path so many of these postings get, I consider that replay appropriate. In any case, the poster did reply to the OPs question regarding Sendmail -- he told him how to remove it from his system and install Postfix. A solution that would permanently eliminate the Sendmail configuration problem. -- Jerry ✌ FreeBSD.user@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
