That's what I want to use, except for fetchmail instead of getmail. I'm taking the suggestions in this thread (thanks), and following the simple mail server guide [1]. I've made precisely two changes in main.cf: soft_bounce = yes, mynetworks_style = host. Everything else is left at its default. Postfix starts okay, but when I 'telnet localhost 25' I get this in the log: fatal: in parameter smtpd_relay_restrictions or smtpd_recipient_restrictions, specify at least one working instance of: reject_unauth_destination, defer_unauth_destination, reject, defer, defer_if_permit or check_relay_domains Which of those restrictions do I specify, and where, and why aren't they set by default? > I also use procmail for filtering - although if you already have this set > up in KMail, that should suffice - and dspam for spam filtering. Yes, KMail is fine for this, with spamassassin. 1. https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Postfix -- Regards, Peter.
