Needs some more details, like why do you think you are sending out spam, what is your mail server (MTA) thats doing it? If you have a badly configured MTA, it can act as a mail relay for others (normally a mail server has mail coming in to deliver to local users - possibly on a local lan, or mail going out from local users to the outside world - what you want to prevent is mail coming and and being send out again). Most have simple ways of doing that. -- Alan Chandler [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
