I'm not entirely clear on what you're using as a mail user agent. Are you still using KMail as your MUA, but using ssmtp to send the emails to your SMTP server, or have you switched MUAs when you started using ssmtp? Chris Brennan suggested you send more information; in addition to answering my question, it might be useful to give us the information Chris requested -- but make sure you obscure any username/password information. -- Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ]
