I believe that sending mail is still the appropriate action. As for the outdated messages, you can set environment variables (eg: SUSE_UPDATE_FROM=900, SUSE_UPDATE_TO=1020) so that %pre and %post scripts can determine whether a message should be sent. -- James Oakley [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
