I am using Postfix verions 2.3.3 on a VPS managed by Plesk.
There are two static IPs associated with my install, let's call them
aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd and sss.ttt.uuu.vvv
When I run ifconfig I see the two interface venet0:0 and venet0:1
Mail goes out fine until I tell the main.cf to use:
smtp_bind_address=aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd
then my maillog shows:
Jul 7 13:00:04 who postfix/pickup[36846]: 1F3274160009: uid=10003

Jul 7 13:00:34 who postfix/smtp[40187]: connect to

Jul 7 13:00:34 who postfix/smtp[40187]: 1F3274160009:

dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred (connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]: Connection
timed out)
I'm assuming because I'm asking it to bind to address aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd it
cannot send out via localhost. So what am I doing wrong? Below is the
main.cf and master.cf
Thank you.
