the mc files contained in there are the default mc files - there is no relaying (except from the local host) turned on by default - although I know longer use OSX , I still have a mail server running on OSXserver (original version) and like wise have aseveral RedHat boxen - the mc file must be altered to enable features, the way you are telling this, one would be lead to believe this isn't so. the typical mc file contains: divert(0)dnl VERSIONID(`$Id: generic-linux.mc,v 8.1 1999/09/24 22:48:05 gshapiro Exp $') OSTYPE(linux)dnl DOMAIN(generic)dnl MAILER(local)dnl MAILER(smtp)dnl while a full featured mail server would contain a list of "features" to enable - those features come with certain caveates attached to them that he and anyone else running a mail server should know about. If he doesn't read the info, how will he know which features he needs to implement and which ones he doesn't? as per the car analogy goes, I wouldn't liken reading the base info to being able to rebuild the top half of an engine ( not that hard really, I once dropped the bottom out of a 911 in a Berkley parking lot and replaced the crank bearings)- I would liken it to knowing how to check the oil and add if necessary. Off topic, can you now compile sendmail on OSX client without getting error messages? I know it can compile, i have done it, just curious if it actually does so without error messages arising. -- Robert Brandtjen -------------------------------------- Web Site Creation and Hosting Services [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.prometheusmedia.com
