You might check your maillog for clues timestamped around 0637 every morning. There's probably a forehead slapper in there. (Most of my trips to /var/log/maillog result in a slap to the forehead.) Check also your wrapper (I use my_rules_du_jour to call rules_du_jour) or config file (normally /etc/rulesdujour/config) for settings of MAIL_ADDRESS, SINGLE_EMAIL_ONLY, EMAIL_RDJ_UPDATE_ONLY, and MAILCMD. If those aren't set, and there's an alias for root in /etc/aliases that gets to you, it should work sensibly. > -- > Cheers, Gene Cheers, -- Bob McClure, Jr. Bobcat Open Systems, Inc.
