Thank you for this. OK, so you are correct in that doing nothing works on my office machine but not when I connect to it remotely to deliver my mail using ssh -L etc and am using that server to deliver my email. I am not able to find any notification as to what goes wrong beyond the fact that

Thanks very much!  I am unable to send mail using postfix. However, the same setting makes it work for sylpheed when I simply specify localhost:25 in the SMTP server so I think that the postfix is set up all right, perhaps. Is there a way to explicitly put localhost with port 25 in the send
