How can I tell the > system to use an alternate "sendmail"? Yes. Set up /etc/mail/mailer.conf - or have the port do it by making enable-qmail. If you didn't install the port, this may screw things up some. You can also save the time take in building sendmail by setting NO_SENDMAIL=true in /etc/make.conf. http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
