Well, which one is better: Setting x programs to not send to @localhost or changing the behavior of one program (namely Courier) to accept those mails. What is so bad about accepting not fully qualified domain names for local delivery, nobody will be hurt. As long as they are set up in locals, Courier should accept those domains. That's a logical behavior and would ease the setup of local mail delivery. But I don't think that it shoud be the job of the administrator to patch Courier. The patch should go into the next Courier release. I, for example, am using Gentoo. I would have to adjust an Gentoo ebuild (similiar to an RPM packet) or work around the package manager of Gentoo, which are both not very fine solutions. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Oracle 10g Get certified on the hottest thing ever to hit the market...
