The setting may be different on other systems. # diff submit.cf_org submit.cf 112c112 < D{MTAHost}[localhost] --- > D{MTAHost}[smtp] I went trough the same drill as you, so maybe you just need that setting. ~af -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
