If those > work, then it's simply your config. Hmmm... I assumed that the -u switch meant run the command as user whoever... but I was wrong. It seems that it means send the e-mail to whoever. So... # sudo -u backuppc /usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_sendEmail -u zep...@cfl.rr.com results in this in /var/log/maillog: Jun 1 18:18:18 localhost postfix/pickup[9126]: 907191840E9: uid=496 from=<backuppc> Jun 1 18:18:18 localhost postfix/cleanup[9278]: 907191840E9: message-id=<20130601221818.907191840E9@stevesDesktop.localdomain> Jun 1 18:18:18 localhost postfix/qmgr[4236]: 907191840E9: from=<backuppc@stevesDesktop.localdomain>, size=497, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Jun 1 18:18:18 localhost postfix/smtp[9269]: 907191840E9: host cdptpa-smtpin01.mail.rr.com[75.180.132.243] refused to talk to me: 554 5.7.1 - ERROR: Mail refused - <184.90.56.138> - See http://www.spamhaus.org/query/bl?ip=184.90.56.138 Jun 1 18:18:19 localhost postfix/smtp[9269]: 907191840E9: to=<zep...@cfl.rr.com>, relay=cdptpa-smtpin02.mail.rr.com[75.180.132.244]:25, delay=0.94, delays=0.61/0/0.33/0, dsn=4.7.1, status=deferred (host cdptpa-smtpin02.mail.rr.com[75.180.132.244] refused to talk to me: 554 5.7.1 - ERROR: Mail refused - <184.90.56.138> - See http://www.spamhaus.org/query/bl?ip=184.90.56.138) which makes more sense. Now I need to find out how to get the server to listen. OK, it appears from the URL given that my IP address is blocked because it is on some Policy Block List. But my IP address comes from my ISP via DHCP. Are they blocking their own IP address? It looks like I can remove it from the list but I'd like to understand this a little better first.
