Well as i understand it (probably i mistaken) - the thing is that Postfix changes original /usr/sbin/sendmail on /usr/local/bin/sendmail. If you do 'ls -la /usr/sbin/sendmail' you can see that it links /usr/sbin/sendmail -> /usr/sbin/mailwrapper. mailwrapper than reads /etc/mail/mailer.conf than have been changed by postfix installation and reads: # # Execute the Postfix sendmail program, named /usr/local/sbin/sendmail # sendmail /usr/local/sbin/sendmail send-mail /usr/local/sbin/sendmail mailq /usr/local/sbin/sendmail newaliases /usr/local/sbin/sendmail So i guess that's why you cannot find anything in /usr/local/etc/rc.d regarding postfix because it simply used as 'sendmail-replacer'. Am i wrong? :) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Daniel Mester Portal Tech.
