Do you have any other mail server installed (exim, sendmail, smail, ssmtp)? Is any other mail server restarts logged (e.g. postfix started in multiple run-levels)? You could try connecting to port 25 (`telnet 0 25`) to see if the server advertise itself. > Note the difference in spacing.

Need to either copy this file upon change or you might be able to hardlink it (believe postfix chroot, so softlink will not work). /Allan -- Allan M. Wind email: allanwind@mediaone.net P.O.
