Also, I don't see any >anvil=(yes|no) directive, what makes you think it exists? >http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#anvil A WHILE back, I had a problem where anvil would pop up, and I googled the entry I received at the time, and the link was "If you don't use anvil, disable it in main.cf with anvil = (something)... No, I really don't need / want anvil. My mail is sent to me from my primary MX. My firewall is configured to only allow mail traffic from a few IP's. So... really, no need for anvil. :) >I'm no good with LDAP, but I'd suggest trying some manual queries >against the table, without postfix.

Does that match >what you have stored in LDAP? D'oh.
