The first place to look is the main mail log file. Usually, it is at /var/log/maillog (on RedHat-type systems). Also, don't forget that the dot at the beginning of that logfile name will make it hidden, so you'll need to use 'ls -a', or reference the full filename to find it. Another thing to check is that maildrop is running as the right user. If that logfile line syntax is correct (too lazy to check), then it should be simple to figure out where the file is being created. $ find /home/ -name .maildrop.log -maxdepth 2 If the file doesn't exist, then the syntax of the logfile line might be wrong, or there may have been no output. -- Bowie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Storage Efficiency Calculator This modeling tool is based on patent-pending intellectual property that has been used successfully in hundreds of IBM storage optimization engage- ments, worldwide.
