Exim's language is a bit more legible than procmail's... (Useful command option: exim -bm. Handy for feeding a footer-stripped message back into the mail system for final delivery) Re cron job: modify it so that the command output which is currently being mailed to you is redirected to /dev/null. -- Pigeon Be kind to pigeons Get my GPG key here: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x21C61F7F
