I'll do that tonight, but what is "a FQDN"? > 2. What MTA (if at all) are you running? None, to my knowledge.

I looked at the cron jobs and I don't see anything running that often. There is a daily, but it didn't seem to be doing anything like this. There was one that performed at a rate of "*/15" (first column), whatever that is for timing, but I don't think it had any message traffic, either. I'll look into that more tonight.
