Hello, if you haven't done so yet, you need to edit the $PLAN9/mail/lib/rewrite file like that: # send all mail to the gateway or mail server, $smtp, for delivery ([^!]*)!(.*) | "$PLAN9/mail/lib/qmail '\s' 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx'" "'\2@\1'" where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the ip address of your smtp. I think once I had some resolution problem, that's why I set it by ip here instead of by name. Works fine enough so I never bothered to do it by name afterwards. hth, Mathieu
