Mail fail reports are cc'ed to Postmaster (I assume; they go to root, and postmaster is aliased to root) on this SunOS4.1 system. It is quite sufficient for me that they go to the originator, and I would like them not to go to root as well, so I don't have to wade through that kind of thing as root. So far, the only suggestion I've had is to disable the postmaster alias, which I'm not going to do. Is there another way? Is there a way even if it only applies to the mailer daemon running on my own machine, rather than problems caused at remote machines? Thanks. [ It is the "PPostmaster" line in the sendmail.cf which sets the alias where bounced mail gets sent to. Just take this line out if you don't want "Postmaster" to get failed mail. clp ] -- This is news. This is your | Peter Scott, NASA/JPL/Caltech brain on news.
