Sorry for followups to my own message but it now looks to be a configuration issue of some kind as my spare NetBSD 3.1 system XMail-1.25-pre16 shows exact same problem so it's probably not particularly a NetBSD-4 problem. I can telnet to port 25 on main server by hostname ok but get connection refused from spare server. It's only a few weeks ago that I setup and tested smtps and pop3 connections from a Ubuntu system to this spare server before transferring that configuration to main server to provide reasonably secure remote access as well as allowing direct connections from friends with outgoing port 25 blocked by isp. sorry for the noise - again David - 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]
