Now I'm wondering if it's postfix, I can telnet to port 25 but I can't send any commands. Shouldn't I be able to type EHLO or HELP, etc. once connected via telnet to port 25? To configure pine, enter its mail menu and select the 'SETUP' submenu. Choose 'C' for 'Config:'. Edit the 'smtp-server' item to your SMTP server so that it reads 'localhost' and try to send an email with pine again. Yes, I tried localhost, actual IP, full domain name. As long as your postfix server is listening correctly (try telnet again to check this), then I think pine will send correctly. I might remove the binary package and reinstall the binary package. I'm using mainly binary packages now instead compiling from source. Regards, - Mike __ The OpenPKG Projectwww.openpkg.org User Communication List [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Yes, you should... did you try to bind the postfix on 0.0.0.0? I´m not sure but I think a I had an similar issue which has been solved not to bind to a specific IP but on all IP´s... cheerio Steve -- Steh auf wenn Du am Boden bist!

Are you referring to the smtp_bind_address = 192.168.2.3 parameter? It seems to be a bit better, PINE/MUTT seems to send e-mail but the local recipient never gets it. mailq displays list of mails but it's not delivered, something along the line of: 825ACCF46 422 Tue Mar 16 09:46:11 [EMAIL PROTECTED] (connect to 192.168.2.3[192.168.2.3]: read timeout) [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm attempting to get mail to work locally w/in the server 192.168.2.3 and not outside onto the Net or such.
