Please use the TMDA mailing lists; I set my "Reply-To" for a reason. This warning is just a warning that nobody has combed through the code to search for security issues. However, in my belief, it's quite safe. As such, you should simply ignore this message. It should not be causing any issues with the SMTP transaction. If you really need to run tmda-ofmipd as a non-root user, you'll need to run a separate copy for each user that is going to connect, and do so on a different port number (since unless you run it as root, it can't change user ID to the connecting use to read their TMDA config files). This probably isn't practical. _____________________________________________ tmda-users mailing list (tmda-users@tmda.net) http://tmda.net/lists/listinfo/tmda-users
