I'm on a Manjaro Linux machine. > I've not studied AWS so may be all wet here... Are you /running/ as the SMTP server? That, as mentioned elsewhere, may need root level privileges to create a listener on port 25. But the other half of your question speaks of /sending/ an email... That should, to my mind, only require /an/ SMTP server to be running on the machine, which you, as a client, connect and transfer the email. The server then handles delivery of the message. If you already have an SMTP server running, even root shouldn't let you create a new server on the port. -- Wulfraed Dennis Lee Bieber AF6VN wlfraed@ix.netcom.com HTTP://wlfraed.home.netcom.com/
