Good Day,
I'm a DBmail newbie with a little problemm which has driven me nuts for
a long day and no matter what I do I don't get any further.

--------------
 dbmail-util -tvp produces:

Oct 16 11:22:16 mail dbmail/maintenance[3433]: dbmysql.c,db_connect:
mysql_real_connect failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through
socket ' /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)
---------------
dbmail-users -v -a [EMAIL PROTECTED] -w passwd -g 0 -m 100M @domain.tld
produces:

Oct 16 15:13:32 mail dbmail/adduser[3497]: dbmysql.c,db_connect:
mysql_real_conn ect failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through
socket ' /var/lib/mysql/ mysql.sock' (2)

Pls see diagnostics below:

Using Fedora Core2 / MySQL 4.0.21-Max
