A question I have is this: does the "username" that you're wanting to receive mail for - exist? Did you create this username, or is it your login? The reason I'm asking is because I created one user to use primarily, but I receive mail for root as well as two other users that I've created - and also use forwarding files and fetchmail and procmail. When you went into the Webmin administration for POSTFIX, even though you didn't change anything, did you SAVE the configuration? Because I'm also wondering if there's a configuration error with POSTFIX that is not creating the proper user mbox... -- Tue, 4 Feb 2003 06:55:00 +1100 6:55am up 11:21, 4 users, load average: 0.76, 0.28, 0.20 ------------------------------------------------------------------ | __ __ | kuhn media australia | | / ,, /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |=================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |/ ._/ |"""""""""| | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |'. `\ | | | icq: 5483808 | | ;"""/ / | | | | | smk ) /_/| |.-------.| | mobile: 0410-728-389 | | ' `-`' " " | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU | ------------------------------------------------------------------ linux user:267497 * RH 8.0 * PC/Mac/Linux/Networking/Consulting ------------------------------------------------------------------ Why not have an old-fashioned Christmas for your family this year? Just picture the scene in your living room on Christmas morning as your children open their old-fashioned presents. Your 11-year-old son: "What the heck is this?" You: "A spinning top! You spin it around, and then eventually it falls down. What fun! Ha, ha!" Son: "Is this a joke? Jason Thompson's parents got him a computer with two disk drives and 128 kilobytes of random-access memory, and I get this cretin TOP?" Your 8-year-old daughter: "You think that's bad? Look at this."
