Then isn't --without-tcpddns - use this option if you are running a small network without access to a DNS server. This option will cause couriertcpd to use the system resolver's gethostby functions instead of issuing DNS queries. Also: you must initialize the esmtproutes control file with the IP addresses of all your servers. what you really want? jerry ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: InterSystems CACHE FREE OODBMS DOWNLOAD - A multidimensional database that combines robust object and relational technologies, making it a perfect match for Java, C++,COM, XML, ODBC and JDBC. www.intersystems.com/match8 _______________________________________________ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users
