I am not in a local network, my machine is a laptop and I access internet using the wireless lan of the university trough a dhcp server, so I don't really know what else to add in /etc/hosts I have tried also to add an '&' in the /etc/init.d/sendmail script, but it doesn't work, and I get an error message sayng that the syntax of the script is not correct. Btw, I have the same problem even using exim instead of sendmail. Bye, Riccardo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
