Not quite clear on what you want to do here. Do you want the 3B2s to send mail via UUCP, but have incoming mail available via POP? Or possibly have certain addresses to a domain via POP and others or the default via UUCP? This can be done easily in sendmail.cf and a typical UUCP entry is: R$*<@cust_domain>$* $#duucp$@cust_mach_name$:$1<@cust_domain.com>$2 Now if you wanted certain addresses to be accessed via POP for a local account adding lines before the default line like this: Rjoe.customer<@cust_domain>$* $#local $: cust_account Would be parsed out before the default "catch all" parses the rest for UUCP delivery. Or just the opposite with default mail going to a POP account: Rjoe.customer<@cust_domain>$* $#duucp$@cust_mach_name$:$1<@cust_domain.com>$2 R$*<@cust_domain>$* $#local $: cust_account You will definately want to do some reading and consider exactly what you wish to do. Mind you the rules in FreeBSD's version of sendmail are most likely different that the version I use, so changes would be needed, but the principles are the same. ------------------------------------------- Jeff Mountin - System/Network Administrator jeff@mixcom.net MIX Communications Serving the Internet since 1990
