I don't hae a smarthost_defer router. Here's the snippet where that entry occurs: I don't hae a smarthost_defer router. Here's the snippet where that entry occurs: --------------- cut -------------- .ifdef DCconfig_smarthost DCconfig_satellite # configtype=smarthost or configtype=satellite # # Send all non-local mail to a single other machine (smarthost). # # This is ugly but we need to split off mails with env-from in # +local_domains - we may rewrite only the envelope-from of these. smarthost_rewrite: debug_print = "R: smarthost_rewrite for [EMAIL PROTECTED]" driver = manualroute domains = ! +local_domains transport = remote_smtp_rewrite route_list = * DCsmarthost host_find_failed = defer same_domain_copy_routing = yes senders = [EMAIL PROTECTED] no_more smarthost: debug_print = "R: smarthost for [EMAIL PROTECTED]" driver = manualroute domains = ! +local_domains transport = remote_smtp route_list = * DCsmarthost host_find_failed = defer same_domain_copy_routing = yes no_more .endif -------------- cut -------------- >Are you using > the single file or the split up files in conf.d? I'm using the single file. I have a bunch of files in the the conf.d directory, but don't use them. I started out with a single file, and that's the way I prefer it. > > > Thats it for now.

Fixed now, thank GOD! Under my remote_smtp_rewrite: rule, I have these two lines headers_rewrite = [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] f return_path = [EMAIL PROTECTED] Of course, I'm the only user here. If you have several, you would need to do a lookup in a file. > I think the only problem now is the > no immediate delivery: more than 10 messages received in one > connection > > Which is why I am trying to find where to put the > smtp_accept_queues_per_connection = 0 directive.

Lots of > info but confusing as heck. Yes, it's quite involved. There are _so_ many capabilities. I think it's just a matter of sorting out what you need and using them and forgetting about the stuff you don't need. Of course, sometimes it's a bit tough finding what you _do_ need. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
