I just had the bright idea to shut the firewall off and try to send something. The port is still only accessible by the localhost even with the firewall off. It's something in the postfix setup. Any massive revelations guys?

My guess is you have two of those.
Here is the output: test:/etc/postfix # grep inet_interfaces main.cf.SuSEconfig # The inet_interfaces parameter specifies the network interface #inet_interfaces = all #inet_interfaces = $myhostname #inet_interfaces = $myhostname, localhost # the address list specified with the inet_interfaces parameter. # receives mail on (see the inet_interfaces parameter). # to $mydestination and $inet_interfaces. # $inet_interfaces, while $local_recipient_maps is non-empty and the # - destinations that match $inet_interfaces, # and unknown@[$inet_interfaces] is returned as undeliverable. inet_interfaces = all -- Allen Seelye Aseelye@blackfoot.net

What does main.cf say? main.cf.SuSEconfig is a back up created by SuSEconfig when you've manually edited files that it doesn't think you should. -- del suse-linux-e

I don't have a .Suseconfig. I do have an .orig and a .2003-xx-xx. Neither of them have body or mime checks listed. I guess I could try and see if it works. Worst could happen, just have to delete the lines right? As for the first reply. Once I did what you suggested, if finally started doing what I've been working on for days. I couldn't get it to filter mail coming from another domain via fetchmail. That was the missing step. I'm hoping that body checks works just as simple. -----Original Message----- From: del-SLE [mailto:suse-linux-e@foodel.demon.co.uk] Sent: Sunday, September 21, 2003 2:07 AM To: suse-linux-e@suse.com Subject: Re: [SLE] port 25 only accepts connections from localhost On Sunday 21 Sep 2003 07:29, Allen Seelye wrote:

James you're thread hijacking! This was for someone else! Fetchd and postfix is for you.

Maybe you need a break from debugging mail? ;-) -- del suse-linux-e
