Make sure you disable cron too, because that calls sendmail. Removing /usr/sbin/sendmail would work too, and would also guarantee that the box cannot send mail, as you seem to want. You should also probably set NO_SENDMAIL=true and NO_MAILWRAPPER=true in your /etc/make.conf, and remove /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail as well. > I'll try any suggestions after work, and will re-post Tuesday. > > Thanks, > > Eli Stair > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message > > Cheers, -Peter -- Peter Wemm - [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] "All of this is for nothing if we don't go to the stars" - JMS/B5 To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
