Thanks Don, xmail shows up as a running process and I can send outbound
internet e-mail while in runlevel 3, just can't receive.
 
s43xmail is in both rc3.d and rc5.d, s80sendmail only shows up in
rc3.d.  Should I whack the rc5.d/s80sendmail?

Are you sure XMail is running in runlevel 3? Sendmail could be running
instead. Did you copy the startup script to /etc/rc3.d/ ?

Subject: [xmail] GDM interferes with Xmail?

Okay, here's a strange one that doesn't make sense to me.

RH8.0, XMail 1.21, ClamAV, Pete's AV filter, SA3.02, modified SA
filter.

Changing inittab runlevel to "3" from "5" to save resources from X
starting up hoses the box (default font not found errors). Changing
GDM
startup in the gui from "graphical greeter" to "standard greeter" for
both local and remote has the exact same effect (changing the inittab
back or replacing the /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf with a backup corrects
it).

During this time XMail will NOT receive any mail (either internal or
external). SMTP is running and I can telnet to it but nothing is
received.

I can, however, send e-mails externally (internally are never
received).

Restoring the backup gdm.conf file and/or changing the inittab and
rebooting the server corrects the issue though. Is XMail dependent on
GDM somehow?

I'm going to have to scrap the box and rebuild to get rid of the
graphical startup, nothing I've tried will allow it to be disabled
without causing me all of this grief, what a pain in the neck :)

Thanks!
