Can you help me with the postfix configuration file attached.

Nothing attached.  more comments below.


I want to mail from Linux logged in user accounts to the internet
and more importantly from Korn shell scripts to the internet.
so scripts running by cron could email error situations to people at home.
I want to receive this from the internet on my Thunderbird on same or
any system

Please see
http://www.postfix.org/documentation.html
http://www.postfix.org/BASIC_CONFIGURATION_README.html
http://www.postfix.org/SOHO_README.html
http://www.postfix.org/STANDARD_CONFIGURATION_README.html

For example configurations.

disable_dns_lookup = yes

Don't do that.

relayhost = [192.168.0.1] <-- my router gateway
relayhost=[74.55.86.74] <-- smtp.webfaction.com

There need to be spaces around the " = "


See page 482 & 483 of Collings & Wall

We don't have that book.


Note - I see 'sendmail' msgs in the logs, so to prove sendmail is NOT
running

If "sendmail" is logged, you are still using sendmail, not postfix.


Hope you can help me with the postfix configuration.


If you need more help, please follow the directions you received when you signed up for the list a few minutes ago. Here's another copy:
