How you would know: You should see something like this: $ telnet remote_machine 25 Trying 192.168.1.1... Connected to remote_machine.mydomain.com Escape character is '^]'. 220 remote_machine.mydomain.com ESMTP Sendmail 8.14.3/8.14.3; Fri, 24 Feb 2012 19:44:05 -0500 (EST) Note the 'Sendmail'. I don't have a postfix server handy, but presumably it would not emit the S word. -- Chris Hill chris@monochrome.org ** [ Busy Expunging </> ]
