Trying to switch from sendmail to postfix I did:

# yum remove sendmail

which resulted in erasing of:
mdadm sendmail-doc sendmail sendmail-cf mutt fetchmail redhat-lsb

I did then:

yum -y install redhat-lsb.x86_64 postfix

and got this error:

Installing: postfix ######################### [1/2] postfix: fatal: file /etc/postfix/main.cf: parameter setgid_group: unknown group name: postdrop

You don't need to remove sendmail, you can just use system-switch-mail to set postfix as the MTA.


I knew that thx.
I tested the exact same steps on our internal testmachine. Must admit it has EL5.2 x86_64 on it but did not show this behaviour.
