The file doesn't exist in courier unless you create it. �Normally courier uses DNS to figure out where to send messages. �(A server that takes all your mail is called a "smart host".) �Look in the courier man page and search for "esmtproutes" for other fun things you can do with this file. � To test it send a message through courier and then check out the mail log. � You should see a line that says it was delivered to the host you put in that file. �So you'll see something like this when you send a message: Apr �2 21:03:35 superman courieresmtp: id=000D3422.406DD51A.00002D06,from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, addr=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,size=1503,success: delivered: mail.domain.com [aa.bb.cc.dd] If you didn't have this smart host in the esmtproutes file then it would say that this was delivered to whatever the mailserver is for lists.sourceforge.net Jeff Jansen ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
