Hi! I was trying to send a message with send() method but it failed. After some quick digging I discovered that the problem is that send() calls sendmail with the parameter "-it" which my mail transporter (Exim 4) lacks. From its man pages I found out that it has "sendmail" compatibility parameter "-ti" and if I change it in Maill::Box source code it works. So I would recommend that "-it" is changed to "-ti" if this does not break support for some other mail transporters. Otherwise Exim sending works if I specify it with "via" parameter but I would like that my program is as portable as it can be and so I would like to not specify transporter in code. Mitar
