Hi Carlos, The debuglevel didn't give me any extra information, perhaps i did something wrong i dunno. What i'm trying to do now is to configure postfix as such that it accepts all connections on port 25. so i cannot get a connection refused. Do you know where to change that, i'm looking all over the configuration files, with no luck this far. I don't think it will solve anything though, because i don't see any attempts on any interface (l0 and eth0) to establish a connection, and yet it still says connection refused in the log. pieter

Hold on: loopback.mydomain is another machine, isn't it? Then it needs to
no it isn't, it's localhost, i don't really understand why postfix uses it with the domain suffix. Everything is happening on my localhost (nfspdt2).
I'll check this, and also will increase verbosity, let's hope that tells me something.
Thx for your help, I'll get back when I have more info.
Pieter

Sure, in "/etc/postfix/main.cf": #inet_interfaces = all #inet_interfaces = $myhostname #inet_interfaces = $myhostname, localhost Also, make sure you have "myhostname" defined on that file. By the way, I forgot:
Mar 5 13:26:24 nfspdt2 postfix/qmgr[9450]: 0E1AB138AB2: to=
, orig_to= , relay=none, delay=10247, status=deferred (connect to loopback.mydomain[127.0.0.1]: Connection refused)
The loopback interface is another name of 127.0.0.1. Postfix seems to like to change some names, prefixing with localhost or something. The email above was sent originally to "pdt@localhost", that changed to "pdt@localhost.mydomain", and that to the loopback interface. Perhaps it is looking for loopback.mydomain in /etc/hosts, seems strange to me. But, clearly, it is not sending to "pdt@nfspdt2" as it should be: therefore make sure you go to Yast, network configuration, set up the computer name again, and then fire up postfix configuration in Yast, so that it takes that name properly. If it doesn't, do it manually. Then, test it with new, locally generated mail, from one user to another, using the standard command "mail", and not any other thing. If that works, the next thing would be what to do with the queued mail going nowhere. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
