Thanks for your reply, I installed mailman with the 2.0.8 tarfile. I checked the tar file and mail/wrapper doesn't exist within it, i'm not sure if this is supposed to get created diring the 'make install' or not.
I am running sendmail and I know it will resolv hostnames, etc fine. All mail services work ok for me. On Sun, 30 Dec 2001, C.
