Hey Darin,

Appreicate the quick response. It's there, in /etc/puppet/puppet.conf on the master:

[master]

    reports = tagmail

    ssl_client_header = SSL_CLIENT_S_DN

    ssl_client_verify_header = SSL_CLIENT_VERIFY

> puppet-users+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com.

[Jo Rhett]

Quick test: can you send mail from this system at all?  I've seen this kind of problem on CentOS when postfix was installed but not set up to be 'mta' in alternatives for instance. This meant that /usr/sbin/sendmail went nowhere...

Yeah -- checked that already, sorry forgot to mention that. Setup with postfix and a relay. Running /usr/sbin/sendmail m...@email.com gets delivered properly

Legacy perhaps, but we have:

   confdir = /etc/puppet

   tagmap = $confdir/tagmail.conf

in puppet.conf's [master] section and our tagmails work.

Cheers,

Iain

Finally got this working. I tried the below config, didn't help.... then actually rebooted the server itself, and hooray! Weird how these things work.. 

Case closed!

Thanks for all your help
