Hi
the latest version from Red Hat is 2.3 which I cannot upgrade to -
# rpm -Uvh /tmp/postfix-2.3.3-2.i386.rpm
warning: /tmp/postfix-2.3.3-2.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID

I cannot update these packages as this is a production Oracle system for
a client.
The only feature I want to use is smtp_generic_maps. It works on one
server but not on another (or it may on the other but I cannot check the
clients relay server).
One difference I can see is on the server where I do receive the email,
the mail -v command connects first to the localhost:
# echo x | mail -v -s x2 m...@me.com
m...@me.com... Connecting to [127.0.0.1] via relay...
I receive the email with the masqueraded 'from' address. All is good.
However on the server where I don't receive the email the mail -v
command connects straight to the defined relayhost straight away and
does not connect to localhost first.
Which one is correct ?
On both servers the relayhost is defined as the next relay server. If
the mail command shows that the mail is going straight to the relayhost
(and not localhost) does smtp_generic_maps still work ?
Many thanks,
Nick.
