I agree with Davide, with exception for the cmd line parameters, as = these are the only 'external' parameters not in xmailroot but in deamon start script or registry (win32), that could be centralized in server.tab = file, keeping them usable on the cmd line to overwrite the server.tab = equivalent. Davide never respond to this request :( - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
