Internal error My problems are slightly different. ;) I'm running it on a DN4500/sr10.2, and I seem to remember a warning that it does not have a warranty for this combination. However this run just fine. Except: 1) bounced mail gets returned to the original user with all '\n' alone on a line doubled. So empty space in longer. I could live with this. 2) The forked child dies everytime. And a traceback will tell you that it can't traceback the process, because it has an invallid stack. 3) It seems to looose messages on and off, and that's what made me go back to the 5.61 version, until I upgrade the gateway to sr10.3 Willem Jan.
