Since everyone else is asking questions that are completely unrelated to Debian I'll do my bit and ask one that's only slightly related.
I've got Smail-3.2.0.102 1998-Aug-2 #2 with the default (ie empty) config files. Here's the problem: 09:54:21</etc/init.d># ./smail restart Restarting mail transport agent: smail. 09:54:25</etc/init.d># !tel telnet localhost 25 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to cr275960-a.

The only reason I'm trying to set this up is so that things like cron jobs will send email to root, as advertised. -chris
