See i.e. > > http://www.sendmail.org/faq/section3.html#3.41 > Alexander, Thanks for pointing out the correction to my post. I forgot sendmail's access_db format does not understand CIDR notation. :-( Add this as "another" reason why I switched to using postfix as my MTA last year. BTW: Why are you sending all of your posts PGP signed? i.e. Content-type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; It's a royal PITA for me to reply to any of your posts. Plus, I have to open up 3 e-mails just to view them. Steve Cowles
