I would not otherwise have had any way of knowing it. Using your information, I did successfully install postfix. It did not work right away, because my postfix configuration file refers to hash: databases, and the OpenIndiana postfix does not support hash: databases. The error message produced by postfix was completely useless; it was "Temporary lookup failure" on the recipient address, an error message that persisted even after the alias database had been changed from a hash: database to a dbm: database. I eventually figured out that I had to rename all of the hash: databases in my configuration file to dbm: databases, and I had to recreate all of them with the makedbm program (I have not yet tested whether the dir and .pag files that were thus created are recognized on the other operating systems that share the hardware). But that is to be expected. Open-source software never works correctly on Solaris-derived systems the first time you install it. It is working now. Thank you again for your help. Jay F.
