Are you running an older version of Debian or current (Squeeze)? Or are you running Ubuntu? IIRC multi instance wasn't supported on Lenny (5.x) or prior. If that bug report was correct, multi instance was added by Wietse in 2.6.5. So, Squeeze, which ships with 2.7.1 would be the first Debian to have Postfix multi instance support. You didn't state whether you're running the Debian Postfix package or if you installed from source. -- Stan
