<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi all I recently installed Postfix Version
postfix-20000531-1.i386.rpm</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In the procces I removed
sendmail</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This is a RedHat 6.1 system Pent 100</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>However I now cannot send mail to local users no
errors seem to be returned ( I dont know where to look )</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>eg mail user</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>then CTRL D</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Then log on as the user and type mail no mail
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have been trying to figure what the problem may
be for about 2 weeks could somebody give me some starting points
please.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I know this is a bit vague but if I dont know
where to start I had postfixed installed before and had no
problems</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>allthough it was a earlyer version ( I installed
Postfix because i could not configure sendmail ) </FONT></DIV>
