Dear Paul/Aaron, Some additional information that I missed last time and thought would be useful is, I ran previous setups on a Ubuntu 6.10-server and now running on Ubuntu 7.04-server.
Any help on this is highly appreciated, please. Best regards. Lasantha. *-------- Original Message --------* *Subject: * What should be the EFFECTIVE_USER and it's privileges ? *Date: * Wed, 23/May/2007 8:39:12 PM +0550 *From: * Lasantha Marian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> *To: * DBMail mailinglist <[email protected]> > Dear Paul/Aron, > > I am testing DBMail 2.2.5-rc3.
