No. The courier INSTALL and configuration guide is the same on FreeBSD. > I am behind an Intranet with an intranet ip number 10.0.0.27 this is > also the hostname. > > After a reboot I received errors like > > sm-mta: Invalid address > -bd: Invalid address > -q30m: invalid address > a few more invalid address errors then > 450 service temporarily unavailable, > mail doesn't work know. of course. Ok, what's happening is that your system is still trying to start sendmail, but when it's attempts to start courier's sendmail binary with sendmail's command-line parameters, it's causing those error messages. You need to stop sendmail completely, by putting the following line at the end of your /etc/rc.conf file: sendmail_enable="NONE" > ps doesn't show courier running > > although during the boot up it shows courier applications as starting That's right, because courier failed to start properly. > I moved the webadmin cgi and it prompts for administration username > and password.

NO, but you need to know the password, which you will find in the file /usr/local/etc/courier/webadmin/password. > I'm reading the installation instructions, I just don't want to redo > something the port install has done. I haven't configured any files yet. The port is ok. Just turn off sendmail, access webadmin from a browser running on your server, and you'll be able to configure it. -- Anand Buddhdev http://anand.org ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users
