Debian comes with exim4 by default. You will probably have had this removed by installing sendmail. Unless you are already a sendmail guru, I'd recommend reinstalling exim4. You can reconfigure it using "dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config". Most of the questions are straightforward. There is additional information available at <http://wiki.debian.org/PkgExim4UserFAQ>. Exim4 and most MTAs come with a "sendmail" binary that supports the same options as the traditional sendmail does: however, for command line mailing, "mail" or "mail x" are best. Try: date | mail -s "testing" your.address And read /var/log/exim4/mainlog to see what happened. -- Jon Dowland -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
