So, it seems we might want a Postfix-Rejection-For-Dummies site, translating terms that seem clear enough to us into painfully oversimplified and de-technologified language. " USER UNKNOWN 'Recipient address rejected: User unknown" means that the part on the left side of the "at" sign is not one of our user addresses. Please doublecheck the address you used. Did you type it in manually? If so, you might have spelled it wrong. ..." Oh my, a daunting task, that. But I'll try, or at least start on it (and maybe leave it for another 5 years ... ;) ) Thanks for the reply. -- Offlist mail to this address is discarded unless "/dev/rob0" or "not-spam" is in Subject: header
