Ok...I've been trying to understand why I'm getting these message all
evening. They only started this evening and I'm not getting them from
every domain I'm mailing to. Only a few of them. could someone please
enlighten me as to why I'm getting them and how to help "postfix" get
through this without going postal on his sorry, overworked, mail-sorting
behind? It's getting somewhat frustrating.
thanks,

Tom,
Tell that mis-understanding part to one of my 3 HDD's on my system. Used
FIPS on it once a long time ago when I was new to Linux, and it hasn't
been the same since. That "useful" little utility scrambled it's eggs so
bad that I wasn't sure I was going to get it back. I wasn't able to get it
back until I went at it with Partition Magic, and luckily was able to
rescue most of the data on the drive curtousy of Norton Utilities. I got
lucky. Some I've known weren't so lucky after using FIPS.
So, it's not a "belief" it's a cold, hard reality of experience. One that
thankfully I've learned from.
