Either you forgot to do the command /usr/local/bin/newaliases
or a series of postmap commands. I think it is the first one causing you
grief

Subject: Postfix doesn't do anything when I connect to it through telnet
orMozilla Thunderbird
Hi,
I'm trying to set up a Postfix SMTP server on my machine (FreeBSD 4.11).
I
read the cheat notes here
<http://www.mostgraveconcern.com/freebsd/mail.html>
and I can get Postfix running. However, when I try to telnet in or
connect
with Mozilla Thunderbird nothing happens.
Here is an example:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] telnet 127.0.0.1 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.angrycoder.org.
Escape character is '^]'.
[some time goes by here...]
[I get angry and mash the escape character like a monkey] ^]
telnet> quit
Connection closed.
Here is some [hopefully!] useful info:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ps auxw | grep post
postfix 275 0.0 0.2 1328 1032 ?? I 9:48PM 0:00.02 proxymap -t

Thank you in advance for any help FreeBSD Gurus!
