In the exim directory is the complete documentation. I believe it's 'spec.txt'. It's 277 pages long. However, in your case, I would rerun eximconfig and look at my answers. Keep option 2 but there will be some questions after that will probably solve your problem. -- Gregory Wood Farsight Computer 1219 W University Blvd Odessa TX 79764 Voice: 1-915-335-0879 CT Pioneers Board Member Novell CNE Appgen VAR
