while (<$artfh>) { s/^~/~~/; print $mail $_; } I suppose the intent is to protect crappy /usr/bin/mail programs, but is this code really needed? I see inn.conf.in has: mta: @SENDMAIL@ -oi -oem %s so BSD mail is not supposed to be used. (Has gpgverify been integrated? Did anybody try it?) -- ciao, Marco
