Most of them work fine as far as E-Mail but some of them have been getting back (User unknown) errors when they send a message to themselves (or when someone else sends a message to them). I have found that is only the users that have capitol letters in their name. I don't even want to think about the trouble involved if I had to ask everyone to change their username to all lowercase. I am hoping this is something simple to fix. I am using popper and sendmail on a BSD/OS server. I would any appreciate if you could E-Mail any response as well as post it as I need to get this fixed ASAP! Dave Hagewood ShadowTech Enterprises admin@arrowweb.com
