I've never been able to get a mail server working on my FreeBSD installation. While I recently upgraded to 8.0-RELEASE, it hasn't worked since my initisl 7.0-RELEASE installation. This is not a major server, so I haven't fussed with it up to now. But, I would like to finally fix it. I've tried various combinations of postfix and sendmail, but all have failed. It doesn't matter to me whether I run postfix or sendmail, though I have far more experience with sendmail. I believe that both postfix and sendmail are currently installed, with postfix being the mail server. I want to forward mail to my sendmail MTA for distribution, which I'm doing successfully with many other *nix boxes. Here's what I currently see in /var/log/messages whenever I try to send a message from the FBSD box: Nov 28 04:15:30 marshfield kernel: pid 11721 (mailwrapper), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped) and in /var/log/maillog: Nov 26 21:35:29 marshfield postfix/master[946]: daemon started -- version 2.7-20091008, configuration /usr/local/etc/postfix Here's at least a snippet from main.cf: mydomain = ourdomain.com readme_directory = no myorigin = $mydomain mydestination = $mydomain #relayhost = [mail1.$mydomain] relayhost = 192.168.1.2 data_directory = /var/db/postfix transport_maps = /usr/local/etc/postfix/transportsmtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_my networks and mailer.conf: sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail send-mail /usr/sbin/sendmail mailq /var/spool/mqueue newaliases /usr/bin/newaliases I've googled, etc., but haven't come up with a solution. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
