The user has not root-privilages on our machine of course. You can run the queue manually with sendmail -q. You don't normally need to be root for that. You can also get them to run the queue for, say, sender lemis.de with sendmail -qSlemis.de Similarly, you can run for recipient freebsd.org with sendmail -qRfreebsd.org Are you running FreeBSD? What price can you offer me for an ISDN connect? Greg
