After an urgent inquiry re my health from a friend, I discovered that e-mails had not been getting out of my machine for 7 days . I tracked the problem down to a change in /etc/group when I updated Ssmtp 2.61-r2 -> 2.62-r3 : there's a new entry 'ssmtp', which needs to be enabled for '<user>'. There was 1 line in the file in /var/log/emerge-logs/ , which didn't explicitly warn that sysadmin action was required, but nothing anywhere else AFAICS, incl in the 'man' file.
Has anyone else got caught by this ? -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
