hi, I checked the header of the emails coming from nagios. I also check the headers of the emails I send from the machine itself when I telnet to postfix.
indeed the email goes to my old mail server then to the new mail server. I checked the file /etc/postfix/transport and it was all commented but I added as you suggested mycompany.com smtp:smtp:ip_adddress_of_my_new_exchange I restarted postfix. but the header of any test message still goes to the old mail server... any idea please? --- On Fri, 25/4/08, Ilya Meylikhov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > From: Ilya Meylikhov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: RE: [Nagios-users] smtp server that nagios uses > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Cc: [email protected] > Date: Friday, 25 April, 2008, 3:44 PM > You can change the /etc/postfix/transport to accommodate > your needs.
