You are absolutely correct Wietse. I was simply pointing out that the problem lies with the default shell used in FreeBSD and not FreeBSD itself. I might add that, that is one more reason that I never use /bin/sh anywhere if possible. IMHO, Bash is just far superior. -- Jerry ✌ postfix-u...@seibercom.net _____________________________________________________________________ TO REPORT A PROBLEM see http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#mail TO (UN)SUBSCRIBE see http://www.postfix.org/lists.html
