Thanks, Neil What you should do is run postconf without paramaters to a file and inspect that. In my case e.g. myorigin is set to $mydomain, but mydomain is set to the correct value. Good lcuk Adrian Command will show default values set in postfix: postconf -d | grep myorigin. Command will show custom values set by you: postconf -n | grep myorigin Thanks / Regards ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
