The following is what I started getting back as of last night, and a few test runs today from a CLI. send-mail: 554 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Sender address rejected: Address locked or deactivated; see http://mail.messagingengine.com/docs/locked.html (all on one line) I use ssmtp to get mail off of my machine, and this still works fine from within mutt. /var/log/mail.* and /var/log/messages files do not provide any clues. The last system updates were: Tue Apr 25 07:20:24 2006 >>> sys-devel/gcc-config-1.3.13-r2 Tue Apr 25 08:38:20 2006 >>> sys-libs/glibc-2.3.6-r3 Tue Apr 25 08:38:53 2006 >>> app-misc/pax-utils-0.1.11-r1 Tue Apr 25 08:39:32 2006 >>> sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.0_pre18-r1 Tue Apr 25 08:40:18 2006 >>> media-sound/alsa-headers-1.0.11 Tue Apr 25 08:43:24 2006 >>> media-libs/alsa-lib-1.0.11 Tue Apr 25 08:44:24 2006 >>> media-sound/alsa-utils-1.0.11 Tue Apr 25 08:44:53 2006 >>> app-portage/portage-utils-0.1.15 Tue Apr 25 08:45:51 2006 >>> app-editors/nano-1.3.10-r1 Tue Apr 25 08:48:15 2006 >>> sys-fs/xfsprogs-2.7.11 Tue Apr 25 08:48:44 2006 >>> sys-apps/memtest86+-1.65 Tue Apr 25 11:19:29 2006 >>> net-misc/tightvnc-1.2.9-r1 However, the overnight script ran just fine after these updates Wednesday AM. Does anyone know what might be going on here? Thanks, festus
