My machine routinely exchanges mail with other machines without a problem until now. I just added a new site (called iailond) and mail sent to me from that site isn't getting delivered. After looking at the log files (in /usr/spool/uucp/.Log/uuxqt) I see: uucp iailond (2/13-6:10:12,11056,0) iailond!dave XQT (PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/lbin LOGNAME=uucp UU_MACHINE=iailond UU_USER=iailond!dave export UU_MACHINE UU_USER PATH; rmail barker ) uucp iailond (2/13-6:10:17,11056,0) COMMAND FAIL (rmail barker - exited with status 71) It appears that for some reason, the command "rmail barker" failed. Just as a sanity check, here's exerpts from my uucp Permissions files: From Permissions: ----------------- LOGNAME=Uiailond \ MACHINE=iailond \ REQUEST=yes SENDFILES=yes \ READ=/usr/spool/uucppublic WRITE=/usr/spool/uucppublic \ COMMANDS=rmail:rnews Now, I did just upgrade my machine to a new version of the operating system which may have done something, but I can't understand what it would be. Does anybody have any clues what "exited with status 71" means or what I might check to look for the problem? Thanks! -Bob ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bob Barker ...!uunet!jhereg!tcnet!wd0gol!barker Robert Barker & Associates barker@wd0gol.MN.ORG
