> Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? > Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com This is really not an "error" per se. You are receiving this because the sympa server, the one Mandrake is running, will not accept your post if you are using a return address other than the one you subscribed with to the list. This makes for good security and anti-spamming. Now there is a way around this: you must be running a smtp server, and after you send your post, Mandrake's sympa server will send you back a confirmation that you must respond to with the exact number sequence that they include in there confirmation email. Then you get your mail posted. Clear as mud, eh? For Example, I subscribe with a return address of [EMAIL PROTECTED], and that is the address that sympa will look for. I now send as [EMAIL PROTECTED], and I get back that confirmation that I mentioned earlier in post. I send it back, and I get my email posted. Want an easier way, just change your friggin address with mandrake... Dr John, -- J. Craig Woods UNIX/NT Network/System Administration http://www.trismegistus.net Art is the illusion of spontaneity
