Thanks Si. This is interesting because exactly this message appears in the
mailbox of every user on my other, non-RaQ, plain Linux, server (when viewed
using Webmin) - in other words, it's generated by (probably) Sendmail - or
maybe Webmin - not Squirrelmail. However it never gets downloaded by any
client - possibly because its To: field is blank?

However I've never seen it on my RaQ4.

This is a niggle that could turn into a problem - that's exactly the kind of
message I don't want my users to receive, and they will be using Outlook or
Eudora mostly and Squirrelmail only occasionally.

Can anyone add anything to this?
