I don't know if it is a problem or not, but was just wondering if anyone else knew what it was. I came into work this morning to see it up on the screen. I can just hit a key and keep working, but wanted to make sure there is not a problem. I did run 'newaliases' just to see if that will fix anything. Here is the error that it gives: SYSERR(root): Cannot open hash database /etc/mail/aliases.db: Inappropriate file type or format -- Scott Mayo - System Administrator Bloomfield Schools PH: 573-568-5669 FA: 573-568-4565 Question: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. Answer: Why is putting a reply at the top of the message frowned upon?
