The program is DADA Mail. It installs a 'mail.cgi' in the cgi-bin and then installs the rest of its files, perl modules, etc. in a hierarchy several layers deep in the cgi-bin directory. We are talking about a lot of files here. Expecting the end user to properly move the files from a temporary directory to the cgi-bin and then properly changing the file(s) properties would seem a little extreme. However, if that is the only way I can do it, I will investigate writing a script that the end user could invoke to accomplish this feat. It does seem a little over the top however. Due to the way DADA Mail is written, the author does not believe it can be run from other than that directory along with its associated files. --=20 Jerry gesbbb@yahoo.com If you think education is expensive, try ignorance.
