Hi Kern, Thanks, that did it. I replaced that with %r as you indicated and it fired right up, sent the email when my catalog job was done, came in as [EMAIL PROTECTED], so i then went in and changed the %r again to the fully qualified hostname i wanted and it worked. I would probably mention this in the manual, it might be useful. Thanks again to everyone. Dave.
