Just to eliminate a lot of guesswork: when you say you "installed postfix" did you do something like "apt-get install postfix" or click on postfix to install via synaptic, or did you download a tarball from the internet and build it yourself? How is rails configured to send the mail - with the sendmail command, or via an smtp connection to the local host? Joe
