As Greg pointed out, editing the .mc file is A LOT easier to maintain when upgrading sendmail releases. And let's not forget that with each release, if something in the configuration changed, you'd have to re-generate your .cf anyway...FROM your .mc file. So, if you make it a habit of maintaining your .mc file, you can easily upgrade from version to version, or even across multiple machines (which is what I generally do - setup one machine, generate the .cf file the way I need it, then copy that .mc file to the others. A lot easier, trust me). -- H | "Life is the art of drawing without an eraser." - John Gardner +-------------------------------------------------------------------- Ashley M.
