If I knew sendmail when I installed ssmtp, then that would have been a helpful suggestion. Manpages are an excellent resource if you already know the answer . . . You need to put two lines in the files ssmtp.conf, which should be in /etc/ssmtp root=postmaster mailhub=<outgoing mailserver> hostname=<name of local machine> That's enough. Around here I need: rewriteDomain=<new domain> because our internal domain is different from our outside world domain. Depending, you may also need revaliases, which is found in the same directory. I need it at home because my home machine names have no meaning for my ISP. Now that you know the lines, the man page will be VERY helpful in determining who best to set it up. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
