Sorry for the probably basic question, but I would like to change the default mta on my FC2 box from sendmail to exim. I believe to do this I need to change the 'entry' in /etc/alternatives/ to point to /usr/sbin/sendmail.exim instead of /usr/sbin/sendmail.sendmail. Doing a 'ls -al' on /etc/alternatives shows that the entries here are lrwxrwxrwx, what exactly is the 'l' and how do I change it? I have tried creating a test symbolic link such as : ln -isv /usr/sbin/sendmail.exim test but the colour coding of the resulting 'test' link is different to the existing ones. Can someone shed some light on this for me? Many thanks Graham
