Steve, I had this problem also. Pulled hair, asked group with no response. I found that one of the mimedefang glue files was calling the old perl and after linking the old location to the new everything worked. I backed up the perl files ( below ) before doing anything... Please note that the pathnames are for my system, you may need to do some checking. This is from memory, you mileage may vary... old perl -> 5.6.0 /usr/bin/ new perl -. 5.8.2 /usr/local/bin in the old perl directory : ln -s /usr/local/bin/perl perl and ln -s /usr/local/bin/perl.5.8.2 perl.5.6.0 I think that I screwed up by letting perl install itself where it wanted and I didn't think about the old versions... Of course I don't have a clue what I broke doing that, but the mail server is happy as can be! I do remember something about foomatic complaining also after the link fix. tod _______________________________________________ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.canit.ca MIMEDefang mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang
