I now know that something inside my box starts-up smtpd whenever a valid request is sent to localhost:25 However, all is not fine yet. I've done some tests today, and included results below: localhost:$ telnet 127.0.0.1 25 <succeeds> localhost:$ nslookup localhost [snip] Name: localhost.localhost Address: 127.0.0.1 localhost:$ telnet localhost 25 Trying ::1...
