This leaf-users mailing search returns a bunch of links that
might be useful for debugging DCD mail problems.

I don't have access to a DCD system right now to check specifics,
but I thought most of the major POSIXness mail problem were worked
out by v1.02.

I use a line like:

  mail -s "leaf fw01 log: $LOG" $lrp_MAIL_ADMIN < $LOG

in the "for LOG in $LOGFILES" loop inside rotatelogs() in
/etc/multicron-p to send logfiles from both Bering and Dachstein
servers to me nightly.  I don't remember it being necessary to
make any changes to POSIXness.mail, but I could be wrong; it's been
a long time ago.

Be sure to set your mailserver in /etc/POSIXness.conf unless you use
the -h option to mail to set your SMTP server.  (There's a mail server
variable in /etc/lrp.conf too, but I'm not sure if it's used for
anything.)

It seems like you should be able to use the dhclient hooks and
the the mail command to do exactly what you want.  I've never
played with the hooks though, so I'm afraid I can't be much help
there.

Hope that helps a little.  Sorry for the lack of specifics.
