I could be mistaken, but in the BASIC_CONFIGURATION_README it says that
to commit changes in the main.cf or master.cf you need to issue a
postfix reload, or postfix restart..
However, if I change the $myhostname value with vi, postfix will respond
with that changed value immediately without the reload..
telnet to the server on port 25, and it responds with the last value you
set, without need for a reload.
I'm in the middle of a mailserver migration, and wanted to have all the
changes ready and checked so I could just reload the various daemons,
but I got tripped up by this (postfix doesn't like it when the other
server responds with the same hostname.. and rightfully so).
Is this mentioned somewhere in the documentation?
The version of postfix on the older server is 2.5.2, on the new ones 2.6.6
