Just to be clear: 'local changes' above should be read as 'manual changes to /etc/mxallowd.conf'. One more problem is that the package both ships /etc/mxallowd.conf as a dpkg conffile and modifies it with maintainer scripts. This is explicitly forbidden by the policy, see section 10.7.3. Michael, sorry to be the bearer of bad news. As a compensation, I've got a proposed patch almost ready and will send it hopefully tonight. I had a look at your update package on mentors.debian.net, please note that there's a version discrepancy with the Debian archive (both are currently at 1.6a-2). -- Niko Tyni [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
