Postfix question

Recently, my mail is downloaded from the service and /var/spool/mail/user continues to grow, but the mail does not make it to the mail client. If I do "rcpostfix stop", they show up; but, I cannot send. If I do "rcpostfix start", I can send, but the above problem persists. What setting in postfix am I setting wrong, or not setting at all?

What you say may very well be true, but he should be able to get it to work with what he has in his procmailrc file. He's not delivering to root. I run fetchmail, procmail, (and used to run postfix) the same way he is trying to run it and it has worked for several years. > > > -- > Cheers, > Carlos Robinson > > > > > > -- > Check the headers for your unsubscription address > For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help(a)suse.com > Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com > Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq(a)suse.com > > > > -- +++ Bruce Marshall bmarsh(a)bmarsh.com Bellaire, MI +++

RE: [SLE] KDE window manager crash
by Alleman, Lowell 01 Mar '03

If you can get to a konsole, then run: kwin and all of your windows should go back to normal. (FYI: You can restart other individual KDE components too, like the KDE Panel. Just run 'kicker'.... I think that the panel restarts itself in newer version of KDE 3.x and up, I think. anyways, it's nice to know.) I've had this happen a number of times, but not very frequently and not much recently. I don't know what to tell you about the fixing the cause of the problem. You may try changing stuff, like your screen saver. I really haven't worried about this problem, since it doesn't happen as much as it did in KDE 2.x., and its relatively easy to restart it.
