At Wed, 26 Nov 2003 it looks like Jonas Manalive composed:

Thanks Jonas,

Actually I went and did the following commands and I can now
send mail independently from my ISP's smtp server.  I haven't
changed anything yet in /usr/local/etc/postfix/main.cf

	postfix check

	postfix start

The manpage for "postfix" stated that "start" will also run
"check" but I ran it anyway.

My mail headers from this email show postfix setting it's mark.

Thanks again.
