Thanks for the info. I think you are correct as my ISP was out of action for 1 day - they possibly changed something around. I have also noticed a drop in ftp speed - 3.3k to 2.3k. Also, I bypass thier mta and use the main unsw one where my mail account is (access permissions are ok though). Obviously I will have to change this until the problem is fixed. The exim smpt transfer agent does seem to transfer mail to a second debian box I have running exim so I guess exim's smtp tranfer is OK. Thanks, Mark.
