Earlier today, if I typed "mail zentara" as root, on my localhost, zentara would get mail in /var/spool/mail.

Now all of a sudden, all mail goes into /var/spool/mqueue. Even if I specify "mail zentara@localhost" it goes into the outbox mqueue.??????

I reinstalled sendmail and mail, no effect.

What file controls this delivery behavior???

For anyone interested, I found that now I must use "mail -v zentara" instead of the usual "mail zentara". This worries me that the behavior of the mail program would suddenly change. According to the man page for mail, the -v option is just supposed to show the verbose delivery info. Why the heck does it actually affect where it's delivered? i.e. /var/spool/mail vs. /var/spool/mqueue The same behavior exists whether the smtp daemon on localhost is running or not. I'm worried about what this change implies. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq
