Okay, I've got
$>postconf | grep host
address_verify_relayhost = $relayhost
inet_interfaces = $myhostname,localhost
invalid_hostname_reject_code = 501
local_transport = local:$myhostname
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost
myhostname = nrg.wustl.edu
mynetworks_style = host
myorigin = $myhostname
relayhost =
smtp_helo_name = $myhostname
smtp_host_lookup = dns
smtpd_authorized_xclient_hosts =
smtpd_authorized_xforward_hosts =
smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name ($mail_version) (Mandrake Linux)
smtpd_proxy_ehlo = $myhostname
unknown_hostname_reject_code = 450
$>
There's a line there setting myhostname = nrg.wustl.edu, which is a
symbolic name for my host. Is the order in which these appear incorrect,
or there's something else?
Thankfully,
Roy
