Hello!

I am a newbie to Perl and I just finished installing Dada Mail on my Web site The software of Dada Mail is wonderful and after testing it I think I will buy the pro version I am very interested with the dada_bridge plugin I will try to explain my problem My web site is on a remote machine which is hosting me So there is on thing I don't understand the dada_bridge plugin must be installed on my own computer for performing crontab or not? Second thing I am on Mac OS "Panther" this question is certainly very stupid (but I am a complete beginner learning Perl): this is about the librairies of Perl for making work dada_bridge plugin I am told to perform the shell command: "perl -e 'print $_ "\n" foreach @INC';" I must say that my brother who is hosting my web site does not offer any telnet possibility So I made this command on my own terminal and I found this:

/System/Library/Perl/5 8 1/darwin-thread-multi-2level /System/Library/Perl/5 8 1 /Library/Perl/5 8 1/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Library/Perl/5 8 1 /Library/Perl /Network/Library/Perl/5 8 1/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Network/Library/Perl/5 8 1 /Network/Library/Perl

and I wrote this data in the dada_bridge plugin as a reference to the librairies in the hope that it could possibly work I never heard of the possibility of performing crontab jobs on a remote machine so I wonder if it is possible I am completely wrong? Then I have set a crontab job on my machine exactly as described in the dada_bridge mailing list When I send mail to the suscribers of my list everything is correct But I notice that I can't send mail to myself so I am forced to bother the others with test messages THIS IS A VERY UNPLEASANT PLEASE CORRECT IT IF POSSIBLE Also I choosed in the configuration of dada mail messages that are allowed to post to this list should: be send to the list as a copy to me: I receive nothing!!! How can I check if the crontab job is working With the logs of console? How can I check if the dada_bridge pluging is correctly configured? When I manually check an send messages everything seems correct with the dada_bridge does it mean that everythink is correct?

Am I completely wrong?
