The troublesome use was POP3 with Eudora. No one > else noticed [which was sorta what I was hoping for :) ] Are you talking about them having problems reading mail, or sending mail? If it's the former, the change to sendmail is not relevant, as reading mail is handled by your POP3 daemon. Check your mailserver logfiles for more information, and ask more questions here if you don't find anything obvious there. Of course, you'll need to quote parts of these log files or provide client-side error messages if you want us to have enough information to provide more specific advice. -- -Chuck
