you wrote that it belongs to the log files, i just pointed out that it doesn't. anyway what is a problem with mta running? it just sleeps if you don't use it and on my laptop, I don't get any emails from system, not even cron, because it sends messages only in case of some (potentional) problem and i dont' have any:) anyway, there used to be some fake-mta deb packages which provided mail-transport-agent tag(or whatever it's called) and that satisfies all the other packages. so try google to find it and install it and you're set. mk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
