Thanks for the replies. Already tried changing the cron email. I think the sendmail is OK. Set up a script to call it like in a "howto" I found. Before that I couldn't send any email from a php script seems to work OK now. If I have to, I'll resort back to my sendmail binary. I think a lot of what I have going on now are just error bounces bouncing around. Any way to tell XMail to purge these bounces so I can get rid of them?
