The solution I use on our system (which also has only one UUCP link to a smart host [uunet]) is to have sendmail queue up the uux job directly, bypassing smail completely for outgoing mail. Here's the definition of the UUCP mailer from my sendmail.cf file: Muucp, P=/usr/bin/uux, F=sDFMhu, S=10, R=23, A=uux - -r $h!rmail ($u) Seems to work great, and it's less filling than regular smail :-). -- Amanda Walker amanda@intercon.com
