Hi,

I think sendmail is in the right place as email is sent to me and the
customer when the order is placed.  I don't have shell access right now
but I will check the exact location later.
I am not sure where to look in the admin pages for the presence of the
write permission tag.  Can you give me a hint of where to look?

Thanks
Darren
