It was strange. I could send. Using iptables, I could see incoming on port 25, so I knew the connection was OK. On the client side, it was just connection refused (almost like a firewall issue, except I had turned off the firewall). Yet, nothing was showing up in maillog or messages to give me a clue as to why the connection was refused. I had used service postfix start to get things going. I found the -D stuff in the doco, so I just typed postfix stop and postfix -D start. All of a sudden everything started working. Postfix does not like service? I assume /etc/rc.d/init.d/postfix start/stop works? Two quick questions: I assume that I have to turn this on to use procmail? Anything else that I need to worry about with postfix and procmail? #mailbox_command = /some/where/procmail #mailbox_command = /some/where/procmail -a "$EXTENSION" If someone is using RH 8 Postfix, would they please confirm that these are the bottom two lines in /etc/postfix/main.cf: # readme_directory: The location of the Postfix README files. # readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix-1.1.11/README_FILES I was slinging keys around between a local and remote machine testing things and I worry I may have zapped the bottom of the main.cf file. -- One learns through their mistakes -- I must be setting a record.
