No need to get upset. Mistakes do happen, I find myself automatically clicking the reply button instead of reply to all so you're not alone. The people on this list are willing to help you. You just need to help yourself a bit by reading the appropriate documentation. Postfix is possibly the best documented piece of open source software and as such it is frustrating when people come to the list with issues that could be easily resolved by reading it. PS Polite notice: Please don't top post on the list - it makes the conversations much harder to follow. Kind regards, James Day -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. Hi, Thank you for the reply James. Referring to Ansgar reply it seems that relay_domains.db is out of date. Ansgar suggested " You need to run the command to convert the (plain text) map into the database file that Postfix uses" How to do or else, where can I find the instruction to do this. This is the test I done. root@mxgw:/etc/postfix# postmap -q vegaspartnerlounge.dk hash:/etc/postfix/relay_domains postmap: warning: database /etc/postfix/relay_domains.db is older than source file /etc/postfix/relay_domains root@mxgw:/etc/postfix# And Ansgar, thank for the help in any case!
