Postfix already asks you if you want to update your /etc/mail/mailer.conf and it wouldn't be much more effort to add the make.conf change, etc. as well. Might be a good patch to create/suggest to the maintainers. Even a verbose message to the console on 'make install' would be a good start. cheers, Gabriel -- Gabriel O'Brien IT Analyst, MPS-EN-CBC.ca w: 416-205-8740 m: 416-996-5679
