I need it to forward all mail it recieves from any host to any host. I am using the latest version of sendmail and apperently there is some FEATURE you have to add so that it relay's without discrimisation. I've read lots of stuff on sendmail.org and I can't figure out where it's talking about that I have to add the stuff I need to. So I'm still lost (if not more so then when I started). My POP server is working now though, so that's good. --- ------------------------------------------------------- | Jason P.
