Bryan, Thanks so much for you help. I think this is exactly what I'm looking for. I installed esmtp along w/mutt and postfix and immediately the email went thru. Time will tell, however. I'm sure you'll all be hearing from me if it doesn't pan out =P. Thanks also to the other suggestions tho they didn't seem to work for me... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
