I rather recommend reading the INSTALL file that comes with postfix and the FAQ. http://www.postfix.org Download postfix Read the documentation. run make as required, do not run make install If you have two mail servers (or can setup one temporary spare machine). Stop sendmail in daemon mode on the primary MX. Set smarthost to point to the other machine mailq -f (This saves the trouble of manually saving the old sendmail binaries and config file as mentioned in the INSTALL document, then periodically flushing the queue). Once your queue is empty, uninstall sendmail (rpm -e sendmail or whatever is suitable to your system). Run make install. /usr/sbin/postfix start Thats all Devdas Bhagat ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users
