Hello I am running FreeBSD 2.1.0. Often when I receive mail, there is a message like this: ----------- begin quote --------------------- Message from UUCP on vas Tue Nov 26 21:06:00 1996 A UUCP execution request failed: rmail victor@vas.tomsk.su The request was made by mpeks!daemon The following files have been saved: /var/spool/uucp/.Failed/mpeks/X./X.mpeksN00AW /var/spool/uucp/.Failed/mpeks/D./D.mpeksN00AW ----------- end quote --------------------- Also, at such moments sendmail says to the console: sendmail[394]: VAB00394: SYSERR(UUCP): errbody: I/O error: Connection refused. I do not actually lose mail, though. It is delivered to my mailbox, but it is also put to the .Failed directory. What is it? I would very much appreciate any help. --- Victor A.
