In attempting to set up Thunderbird to use a system email account, I discovered a problem with mail. Thunderbird complained it couldn't find the mail spool. I then tried running mail from the command prompt. After trying to send a message, I got an error "postdrop: warning: unable to look up public/pickup: No such file or directory". This is on 12.1. I also tried creating another user, to make sure the problem wasn't caused by something in my home directory, but got the same result.
Any ideas? This is the first time I've ever seen mail fail.

iow, make sure that postfix is running.
That's the problem. It's enabled for run levels 3 & 5, but not running. After manually starting, mail works. I guess I'll have to start it in after.local. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
