It needs to provide smtpdaemon and MailTransportAgent to satisfy various programs dependencies... I wouldn't set it with a higher priority than sendmail either. I'd set it to like 5 on the priority. Right now it doesn't support a system wide default config so it can't really entirely take the place of postfix/sendmail. I looked at it last night and intended to patch that in... but didn't get it yet. -- Ben Reser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://ben.reser.org "If you're not making any mistakes, you're flat out not trying hard enough." - Jim Nichols
