I figured I should check for paths going through att so nobody's mail gets discarded, and I came up with over 2,000... so I added -datt to the pathalias command line, and still came up with over 1,700... looked at them all and they all (seemed to be) at&t internal sites. Now, can't you just say att .att.com and then let internal sites be addressed as xxx.att.com? It would make it a lot easier to check for paths that are going through att that shouldn't be, and would make the paths file all that much smaller. Just my 2 cents.. Bill P.S. sorry for posting this in news.admin, I know it has nothing to do with MES... :-)
