Two tacks that I could suggest. One is to run exim only when your PPP connection is up. Unfortunately, this has the side effect of disabling local deliver. You can specify commands to run on up and down actions in ppp-up.d and ppp-down.d. The other is to configure diald to ignore exim network requests. Note that this may cause exim timeouts. I've looked at diald from time to time but never actually configured it. -- Karsten M. Self <kmself@ix.netcom.com> http://kmself.home.netcom.com/ What part of "Gestalt" don't you understand?
