It should hand things to sendmail for delivery. C5 should have a real sendmail program configured to accept only from localhost by default. Do you see anything in /var/log/maillog to indicate what happens to them? If they go to another host, you may have to configure the sending machine to use a domain name that can be found in DNS or it may be rejected. C6 should have postfix by default, but that provides a compatible-enough sendmail program. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Try before you buy = See our experts in action!
