I use a free host from no-ip.com, as such the FQDN isn't registered such that it will direct to me. (Not sure what the terminology is for such a situation; I suppose that the domain exists in DNS, it shows in whois.)

To run Postfix locally only, just my home machine, follow:

1 /etc/postfix/main.cf:
2     myorigin = $mydomain
3     mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 10.0.0.0/24
4     relay_domains =
5     # Optional: forward all non-local mail to mailhost
6     #relayhost = $mydomain

http://www.postfix.org/STANDARD_CONFIGURATION_README.html#local_network

and set main.cf to:

myorigin = localhost

so that postfix only sends mail locally?
Or, do I set $mydomain to localhost, perhaps? For my purposes, do I enter the FQDN from no-ip.com anywhere?



thanks,

Thufir
