Miscelaneous config. parameters: MIMEDefang version 2.58 Unix::Syslog : no IO::Socket : Version 1.29 Mail::SpamAssassin : Version 3.001003 Net::DNS : Version 0.59 Unix::Syslog : Version 0.100 I have run into the same problem on an FC5 upgrade, and am wondering what is the recommended fix? _______________________________________________ NOTE: If there is a disclaimer or other legal boilerplate in the above message, it is NULL AND VOID.
