Yes, I know that cross-posting is unencouraged behaviour. However, I really thought that apache-users was the place to ask. When I received no reply from the apache mailing list, I did not know whether to ask here or at my distro's (Fedora) list. As the problem is in a php script, however, it involves php AND apache AND sendmail, all of which were installed by default on my distro- and are expected to work. I was not sure if the fault is with me (my misconfiguration) or with the distro (distros default configuration). So I appologize, and here I learned yet another lesson- when I _do_ cheat- I get caught! Dotan Cohen http://technology-sleuth.com/short_answer/what_is_hdtv.html (&^
