I *thought* that was the case. Used a shell account on my ISP to query majordomo for lists and saw: freebsd-test sufferer of all new ideas and hacks freebsd-test-digest ... and was put off thinking it was something else. But now that I have that all cleared up its something I'll not forget. Trying to think of a better short description than above but my creative verbal skills are not up to it at the moment. "place to play with your new mailer" or "place to play with email" or "place to test your mailer" would have lit a light bulb over my head. Apparently there was nothing wrong with the sendmail.cf I had. Problem was I was putting it in /etc/sendmail.cf rather than /etc/mail/sendmail.cf -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
