Hello all,
I am trying to setup postfix so that it will start automatically at
startup. I placed the following script "postfix" in a text file
"postfix" and saved it to Library/Startupitems/Postfix. As you
probably guessed it did not work. I would be grateful for some
detailed instructions on how I can get postfix to start automatically.
Thanks in advance for any help

Script:
# !/sbin/sh
# Starts, stops and reloads Postfix at system startup
# Logger and Postfix path

LOGGER="/usr/bin/logger"
POSTFIX="/usr/sbin/postfix"

if [ ! -f $POSTFIX ] ; then
$LOGGER -t $0 -s -p mail.err "Unable to locate Postfix"
exit(1)
fi
if [ ! -f /etc/postfix/main.cf ] ; then
$LOGGER -t $0 -d -p mail.err "Unable to locate Postfix configuration"
exit(1)
fi
case "$1" in
start)
echo -n "Starting Postfix"
$POSTFIX start
