yep, local user and one pop3 account on my ISP. that is what all this fuss is about.
Code:
bash-4.1$ sudo postconf -n biff = no command_directory = /usr/sbin config_directory = /etc/postfix daemon_directory = /usr/libexec/postfix debug_peer_level = 2 home_mailbox = Mailbox html_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix/html mail_owner = _postfix mailbox_size_limit = 0 mailq_path = /usr/bin/mailq manpage_directory = /usr/share/man message_size_limit = 10485760 mydomain_fallback = localhost myhostname = domain (I entered the machines hostname here ....) mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases notify_classes = bounce, delay, policy, protocol, resource, software queue_directory = /private/var/spool/postfix readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix recipient_delimiter = + relayhost = [mailserver]:587 sample_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix/examples sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail setgid_group = _postdrop smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/smtp_pass (I think this file should be removed once it runs - eg cleartext) smtp_sasl_security_options = smtp_tls_CAfile = /etc/postfix/ndn.ca.crt (should I rename this file to .pem ? downloaded from ISP) smtp_tls_loglevel = 1 smtp_tls_security_level = encrypt smtpd_client_restrictions = permit_mynetworks permit_sasl_authenticated permit smtpd_tls_exclude_ciphers = SSLv2, aNULL, ADH, eNULL tls_random_source = dev:/dev/urandom unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550 bash-4.1$
Code:
From www-data@www.unix.com Mon Dec 19 09:52:30 2011 Return-Path: <www-data@www.unix.com> X-Original-To: roadie@localhost Delivered-To: roadie@localhost.org Received: from roadiemac.bigpond (localhost [127.0.0.1]) - "different from the machine hostname I put in main.cf ..." by 'my website domain' (Postfix) with ESMTP id A57AB216778 for <roadie@localhost>; Mon, 19 Dec 2011 09:52:30 +1000 (EST) X-Original-To: my email address Delivered-To: x11122464@mailserver ISP (different from the 'relay host mail server' Received: from 'relay host mail server' [IP Address numeric] by roadiemac.bigpond with POP3 (fetchmail-6.3.11) for <roadie@localhost> (by default); Mon, 19 Dec 2011 09:52:30 +1000 (EST)
Another thing - masking all my ISP info makes it harder to help? Should I just paste it all in cleartext (except for the password)? What is the standard procedure this day and age?
I want this just for receiving and sending mail on this one machine, for one local user (me) - I do have years of mailinglist emails and archives (mbox files) and I would like to use gnus to read that and throw regexpressions at it.
... added your line to .fetchmailrc
created .procmailrc by stealing one from the internet and changing it.
Code:
# .procmailrc # routes incoming mail to appropriate mailboxes PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin DEFAULT=/Users/roadie/Mailbox SHELL=/bin/sh
fetched a testmail and procmail appended it to my Mailbox File.... what about sending mails?

I've just installed Alpine on Snow Leopard but can't seem to get a default spell checker configured for it. What happened to spell? I can't find it at all on 10.6, must have been some changes. Does anyone know about the default unix spell checker on SL? Thanks! (0 Replies)
