One of our customers is looking to finger an address at our location and that finger would then cause a program to locally be run (like sendmail -qRblah) that would deliver mail. I am wondering if such a beast already exists and where I might find it. Any info or suggestions would be greatly appreciated... TIA... Sean Rolinson snowdog@charm.net
