I was trying to get Postfix to receive mail without having to run fetchmail (sort of like a mail server). I ran the following command on pc01.local:
service postfix start smtpd Is this correct? All I know is that prior to running this, I could not telnet to port 25 of pc01.local from another machine (I could, however, telnet to port 25 when I ran telnet from the pc01.local and connected to localhost -- 127.0.0.1). Once I ran the above command, I COULD connect and send email to pc01.local from another machine. If the above command was correct, how do I make it "permanent"? I can't seem to find the right command in the postfix, smtp, smtpd, or master man pages. I suspect it's a configuration parameter in /etc/postfix/main.cf or /etc/postfix/master.cf, but I can't seem to find the right one. But I guess I should be glad Im not trying to configure sendmail! :-) God bless! -- Pro-Life Philippines website -- http://www.prolife.org.ph --[Manny [EMAIL PROTECTED] Member: Philippine League for Democratic Telecommunications "Affordable Access for All" --[Open Minds Philippines]--------------------[openminds.linux.org.ph]-- -- Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph .
