> Hi, > (freebsd newbie) > I've installed postfix from ports. At the end of the > installion script I was asked if it should modify the > /etc/mail/mailer.conf file which I answered with yes! > > My question is, how is postfix started? It did not install > a .sh file in /usr/local/etc/rc.d. > Was all set up for you > Is still started with the sendmail_enable="yes" variable in > rc.conf or do I have to set sendmail_enable="NONE", and add > something different to use postfix? > Just after hitting YES above you shuld have seen the following: If you have postfix configured in your /etc/mail/mailer.conf (answered yes to the previous question) and would like to enable postfix to start at boot time, please set these variables in your /etc/rc.conf file: sendmail_enable="YES" sendmail_flags="-bd" sendmail_outbound_enable="NO" sendmail_submit_enable="NO" sendmail_msp_queue_enable="NO" This will disable Sendmail completely. > What other "specific freebsd" files do I have to or should > I modify when using postfix (for example like make.conf)? > Where can I find more info when using postfix on freebsd? > If you want to do something different from standard setup, you may want to edit some of the files in /etc/mail after studying the documentation. > Thanks a lot > Didier To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
