The Postfix port installs a 'sendmail' interface that MUA's will use to send mail to Postfix. This wrapper understands many Sendmail options, and I used to run Postfix when I was trying it out with this in my /etc/rc.conf: sendmail_enable="yes" sendmail_program="/path/to/postfix/wrapper/of/sendmail" sendmail_flags="-bd -q5m" It all worked like a charm. - giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
