When you installed Postfix did you allow it to update the entries in /etc/mail/mailer.conf ? If so, I wouldn't worry about the mailq binary that came with the system; it's ignored. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list

Ok, maybe I am little slow but I have 12 domains, with sendmail I could set them up in local-host-name, and I could set up what computer that had rights to send mail in relay-domains, and I don't see where you can set up mysql part and where to set up that users need a password to send mail.

I have used postfix and sendmail on both linux and FreeBSD and I definitely prefer postfix. For starters, its security track-record is much better. Also it was very easy to ste up a system that uses mysql with virtual domains, SASL for relay authentication (also interfacing with mysql) etc... I
