Check out procmail (ports/mail/procmail) it allows you to invoke filters and regex on your mail, you may be able to combine the effect of 'diff' against a template and filtering out changes regarding just hostnames to route all mail that matches a template to /dev/null or a holding box while flagging mail that differs too much to a special mailbox. let us know :) -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
