I used midnight commander, and looked through each text/config file, and I don't see it. I've re-configured postfix (removed & re-installed as well) numerous times. Any other ideas as to how/where might find my former domain name?
]$ grep myhostname /etc/postfix/main.cf smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name (Debian/GNU) myhostname = yourdomain.com This defines what domain name postfix uses to send mail. Usually this points to /etc/mailname. Doesn't matter what the hostname of the box is. You say Postfix _sends_ mail to your old domain name. Postfix uses the virtual file to send mail to specific places. This file generates a db file that is, of course, binary. So removing the actual virtual file would not affect the actual db file. You'd have to generate a new one. Grep wouldn't pick this up either since it's binary. ]$ postmap hash:/etc/postfix/virtual (providing you use hash files) It could be a btree or dbm file but most likely it's a hash. -Eric -- "Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school." - Albert Einstein
