project paused

I am leaving sunny cairns for sunny dry india end of february. I have not setup the local mail 100% correct - missing something, but email works fine.
So I am getting used to rmail and mbox logistics for the moment and will dig into the postfix setup in India. Thank you dude2cool for helping - much appreciated. I will get back on this and then hopefully be able to post a complete howto covering installing unix old school mail on snow leopard.
Happy New Year everyone. Smilie

NAME
postfix-nochroot - change /etc/postfix/master.cf to not use chroot SYNOPSIS
postfix-nochroot DESCRIPTION
Renames /etc/postfix/master.cf to /etc/postfix/master.cf.bak and creates a new /etc/postfix/master.cf file with every service configured to not use chroot. Every modified line is commented. It also restarts Postfix (to apply the change) and rmoves the unused chroot directories /var/spool/postfix/{etc,lib,usr} . Using a chroot environment makes upgrades more difficult and gets in the way when running SE Linux (without actually providing any security benefit in a SE Linux system). SEE ALSO
