Indeed it is. It was a simple install. I found examples with Google showing me what needed to be in the config file. I successfully sent myself a test message from the command line. To use ssmtp from the command line requires the use of sudo. If I put the call in crontab does that mean that I don't have to use sudo? -- Regards, Dick Steffens _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
