The problem with ssmtp is that it doesn't have a queue. That means if it can't deliver the message to another server immediately, it fails and doesn't deliver the message at all. This might work for some people -- people with constant net connections or who don't mind waiting for demand-dialed ppp every time they want to send a message. Also, remember that by default cron sends error messages to "root", which would be root on whatever machine you configure ssmtp to hand messages over to. -- Raul -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
