But haven't found anything. > the easiest thing to check right now is the output of "hostname". also, i *think* that the periodic scripts send mail to root (i.e., they don't add the domain), so perhaps sendmail is adding this? try: # sendmail -bv root if that is the case, check /etc/mail/sendmail.cf for the hardcoded hostname, or give sendmail a bit of -HUP (make restart in /etc/mail) hope this helps ~jon - "Yesterday upon the stair I saw a man who wasn't there, he wasn't there again today, oh how i wish he'd go away" Rev.
