Hello! The new Sendmail startup mechanism on 4.6 requires that people using MTAs other than Sendmail specify the startup script with mta_start_script variable in rc.conf. I'm using an old(ish) version of Postfix, installed from ports in July 2001 and I can't figure out what the value of mta_start_script should be. As a wild guess, I tried "/usr/local/sbin/postfix" and "/usr/local/sbin/postfix start", but it didn't work (error messages on bootup scroll off the screen so fast I can't read them and they don't seem to get logged anywhere). As a workaround, I created an /usr/local/etc/rc.d/postfix.sh script which works OK, but it seems kind of inelegant. -- Toomas Aas | toomas.aas@raad.tartu.ee | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * This message is ROT13-encrypted twice for extra security.
