Dag! I said MUA but meant MTA in my cross-post. Nice to know about the "mail-transport-agent" dependancy, Debian is cool. Installing qmail doesn't automatically remove exim, however, (at least not when I did this last year) because the debian qmail package just gives you the sources and does some of the group creation prep. -- Paul Mackinney [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
