Chris, thanks for the reply, but "should" is the key word, and "isn't" is the reality.

Clearly my server is not automatically noticing and downloading a new one .

How can I force a download of IpToCountry.csv?

I am running version 7.7c-1 on Centos, but I've had this problem for years, since at least version 7.3o4-4 and probably before that.  It was a minor annoyance until recently.

The /usr/local/surgemail/IpToCountry.csv file on my server:

# File Time Stamp   : Wed Aug 13 12:08:01 2008 UTC.
# Generator         : ip.pl on http://Software77.net (A Webnet77.com Company)
# Software Author   : BRM
# Software Version  : 4.1.2
# Contact           : http://Webnet77.com/contact.html
# Download          : http://software77.net/cgi-bin/ip-country/geo-ip.pl

I get an error if I try to download anything from software77.net:

# wget http://software77.net/cgi-bin/ip-country/geo-ip.pl

Thanks,

We update that list once every couple of months and your server should automatically notice and download the new one.
