I've setup UUCP on the FreeBSD box. When I send mail to an account on the FreeBSD box, the Host dutifully queues it for delivery. I know this because I have a shell account on the Host and I can verify its queued status using uustat. When I call into the Host from the FreeBSD box (using uucico), the mail is picked up. How do I know that? The log on the Host indicates it, there is no longer any outbound mail queued for the FreeBSD box on the Host, and if I send a long message, the modem connect time is much longer than it is when no messages are queued. In short, I'm strongly convinced that the queued messages are getting transferred from the Host to the FreeBSD box. The problem is that I can't seem to figure out where they're going. The mail is not received by the addressee. If I use find to search the entire system for files that were created today, there is none that I can't account for (i.e., nothing that could be the missing mail). Can anyone help me figure out what's happening to these messages? Thanks for any input. ... doug _____________________________________________________________________ Doug Jolley mailto://doug@bigwheel.net http://www.bigwheel.net Don't bogart that file, my friend.
