You could put "root: david" in /etc/aliases, and then use your .forward, or you could cut to the chase and put "root: [EMAIL PROTECTED]", or you could put your address in /root/.forward. I'd go the first option, like you said. > I am looking for the config to stop exim accepting external mail but > so far cannot find it. Probably it would work to put "smtp: 127.0.0.1" in /etc/hosts.allow and "smtp: ALL" in /etc/hosts.deny. For more on this see man hosts_access and this page I saw: http://www.linuxgazette.com/issue37/tag/9.html hope it works for you, Patrick Lesslie -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
