Yup. Which is actually why as you progress this will become less and less Linux-specific. You may want to eventually move to OSS-Dev (since you'll be using open source / free software tools), or if you're bent on using Perl, the ph-perl list. > I just hope that our existing MTA server has Perl installed. Your MTA doesn't need to have Perl installed. You can use Net::SMTP, which is part of libnet or if you're up-to-date, Perl 5.8.0. I presume of course that your MTA allows itself to be a relay host for internal nodes. If this is not the case sue your admin. I've been learning a bit of Perl during this sem, having been forced to use it for a project, and the most awesome lesson I learned is that <http://search.cpan.org/> is everyone's best friend. Next of course to Google and <http://marc.free.net.ph/>. ;) --> Jijo -- Federico Sevilla III : http://jijo.free.net.ph Network Administrator : The Leather Collection, Inc.
