I use this: smtp_url="smtp://localhost/" (I run sendmail locally. I could use local submission via $sendmail, but I use the built-in SMTP code to exercise the code.) I also have certain send2-hooks which replace that with another SMTP server. You can replace localhost with your smtp server name, and submit without authn. -- -D. dgc@xxxxxxxxxxxx NSIT University of Chicago "Polka music needs to prevail."
