I just noticed that my new server is accepting mail for "nobody". moder8 at telecom:~$ ls -lh /var/mail total 4.0K -rw-rw---- 1 moder8 telecom 0 Jul 26 19:10 moder8 -rw-rw---- 1 root root 1.5K Jul 10 06:16 nobody moder8 at telecom:~$ sudo less /var/mail/nobody moder8 at telecom:~$ sudo emacs /etc/aliases moder8 at telecom:~$ egrep nobody /etc/passwd nobody:x:65534:65534:nobody:/nonexistent:/usr/sbin/nologin Which is probably not a good thing. ;-) Ubuntu 14.04 LTS has Postfix by default, and I've never worked on it. All suggestions welcome. Bill -- E. William Horne William Warren Consulting 339-364-8487
