Here's the list of supported databases on my system (yours are probably the same): % postconf -m static pcre regexp environ proxy btree netinfo unix hash And here's the default: % postconf -d | grep database alias_database = netinfo:/aliases default_database_type = db This is the problem: the default, as set at build time, isn't supported. It looks like you can override this by setting default_database_type = hash (for example), in /sw/etc/postfix/main.cf > Cheers, > Remi > > > -- > Package manager version: 0.13.5 > Distribution version: 0.5.3.cvs > Mac OS X version: 10.2.6 > December 2002 Developer Tools or later > gcc version: 3.1 > make version: 3.79 > Feedback Courtesy of FinkCommander > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > I haven't lost my mind - it's backed up on my disk somewhere. > > ********************************************************************* > Remigius K.
