Hello:
I finally got around to try postfix and did my first install. This is my
system:
CentOS-5.1-i386
Postfix-2:2.3.3-2.i386
NOTE: Postfix is downloaded and installed as part of O/S installation.
I have minor changes to /etc/postfic/main.cf file as follows:
inet_interfaces = all
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost,$mydomain
home_mailbox = Maildir/
mydomain is 'tib.com'
Host is 'mail.tib.com'
After updating /etc/postfic/main.cf, I restarted postfix. Then I entered the
following in a terminal to test postfix:
-------------------------------------------------------------
[root at mail ~]# telnet localhost smtp
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1).
Escape character is '^]'.
220 mail.tib.com ESMTP Postfix
ehlo host
250-mail.tib.com
250-PIPELINING
250-SIZE 10240000
250-VRFY
250-ETRN
250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES
250-8BITMIME
250 DSN
mail from: kbajwa
250 2.1.0 Ok
rcpt to: kbajwa
250 2.1.5 Ok
data
354 End data with <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>
test
421 4.4.2 mail.tib.com Error: timeout exceeded
Connection closed by foreign host.
[root at mail ~]#
-------------------------------------------------------------
As you will notice that after I enter 'test' and hit RTN, (after a long
while) the system returns an error.
This is my first postfix install so I have no idea what to do. FYI, the
'mail.tib.com' server is not connected to the NET.
Please direct me to the right direction.
Thanks.
Kirt
