If your using postfix or qmail you should be able to set up some "virtual" accounts. These are not real logins, but the mail server accepts mail for these users and people can "login" and pull mail. They can't actually login to the box, but can pull email thru pop or whatever. There's a howto on this, I haven't used it. So don't know how to tell you to do it. Hope this gives you some direction to look in. Brian PS I don't know if sendmail can do this, probably some add on program will. > -----Original Message----- > From: Dale Herring [mailto:dale_n_ks@yahoo.com] > Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2002 4:02 PM > To: kclug@kclug.org > Subject: Re: denying loggins > > > This is for users that have two logins.
