So to switch to Postfix you will have to use the mechanism to relink - using alternatives. What prints out: alternatives --display mta If that tells you that Sendmail is still the primary MTA, then run: alternatives --config mta and select Postfix. Then rerun "newaliases" or "postalias /etc/aliases". Alexander _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
