Sup calls out to a sendmail binary rather than talking SMTP directly. So you will have to configure your system to do the right thing. On Debian and Debian-based systems there are nice configuration scripts for telling sendmail to relay all outgoing email to a smarthost, deliver it directly, etc. > As it stands, Sup is trying to use sendmail as it's setup in > config.yml, but is failing silently and marking my messages as sent. Sup checks whether the command failed and should tell you if so. Do you have a sendmail binary that's just eating the mail, or is Sup somehow screwing up the system call return value check? -- William
