okee, this probably means that your /etc/inetd.conf got hoosed, unless you are running exim in daemon mode. Somewhere you need to find lines like: #:MAIL: Mail, news and uucp services. smtp stream tcp nowait mail /usr/sbin/exim exim -bs if that smtp line is missing, add it, do as root "/etc/init.d/inetd reload" and try again. -- groetjes, carel
