That's correct. By default XMail starts it's own sendmail process. These days many distros also enable postfix by default, so make sure that postfix is also disabled. If either of the distro's sendmail or postfix daemons start before XMail they will bind to port 25 and prevent the XMail sendmail process from starting. If you run XMail in debug mode you should see the XMail sendmail porcess start. - 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]
