I found the solution.
My eth0 interface had the subnet mask set to 255.255.255.0 whereas the local host (lo) had it set to 255.0.0.0
After ifconfig lo netmask 255.255.255.0 it worked as expected.

Hi
I've previously set up postfix in my mac running MacOS 10.3 to relay mail from all computers in my network. It used to work. Now I have another mac running YDL4 and I am trying to configure Postfix to do the same. As long as I send the emails from the host running Postfix I have no problem. However, when I configure the other computers to relay through the mail server, I get an error saying "The attempt to read data from the server '192.168.1.20' failed". In the logs for Postfix nothing shows. I turned off all firewalls and still nothing happens.


myhostname is set my FQDN
mydomain is set to FQDM minus the first part.
myorigin = $mydomain
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain
mynetworks = 192.168.1.0/255, 127.0.0.0/8 ( I also tried mynetworks_style = subnet )


If I open a tunnel from any computer to the mail host using ssh -L 25:127.0.0.1:25 [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I set the client to relay through 127.0.0.1 it works. Why doesn't it work when I enter the actual IP of the mail server in the client configuration as the smtp relay host?
Help
Thanks
