("If it ain't broke, don' fix it!") If you find that you can't deliver mail to certain addresses later on (AOl.com, Attbi.com, comcast.com) then you can think about either switching to a smarthost or adding some mailertable entries to hand off those domains to your ISP's smtp service. For now it makes no sense to change anything since its not causeing a problem. -- Jeff Kinz, Open-PC, Emergent Research, Hudson, MA. jkinz@xxxxxxxx copyright 2003. Use is restricted.
