I'm confused. The postfix setup you mention only talks about getting POP mail from gmail, which is why enabling POP for your account was mentioned previously. But you keep referring to _sending_ email. The postfix howto wont help you at all for sending mail using gmail. Unless I completely missed something. If you want to use gmail as your SMTP, you need to use the gmail api. There are several small proof of concept apps out there already to do this. Or you can build your own using something like libgmail (http://libgmail.sourceforge.net). Hope this helps. dan -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the body "unsubscribe ilug-cal" and an empty subject line. FAQ: http://www.ilug-cal.org/node.php?id=3
