There is no local interface, 127.0.0.1 inside a jail, only the IP address that the jail has been given. You need to tell postfix to startup on the same IP address that the jail has been given. Do this either by setting: myhostname = yourmachine and putting "yourmachine" into /etc/hosts with the correct IP, or by setting: inet_interfaces = youripaddress Both changes can be done in the postfix main.cf config file. Obviously replace yourmachine and youripaddress to their correct values. -- Michael Pye To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
