Warning: you still need to edit myorigin/mydestination/mynetworks parameter settings in /etc/postfix/main.cf See also http://www.postfix.org/faq.html for information about dialup sites or about sites inside a firewalled network. BTW: Check your /etc/aliases file and be sure to set up aliases that send mail for root and postmaster to a real person, then run /usr/bin/newaliases. |
