Thanks for the reply.

I added the missing users and groups as discribed at xlr8yourmac.com this seemed to help but nothing conclusive yet so I looked at the mail log as suggested which did yield some clues. "server refused mail service (port 25)" is listed A LOT in the log file and it contains hundreds if not thousands of entires. I'm not sure if my companies firewall is blocking the mail or if I have something screwed up.

Thanks for your help

OK a little more info.

It seems that the outgoing mail is working. I sent mail to my work account from home then logged-in throught the vpn and I received the mail. So it is working. Next question is can my offices firewall block the e-mail, and if so is there a way around this? I know one of my co-workers was using sendmail to use his .mac account at work (sending). Any ideas.

Thanks for the help.

Major ISP's usually block the access through port 25... to avoid people bypassing their mail servers...
