Define correctly. It seems that a number of articles I have found
recommend using 127.0.0.1. You seem to be recommending something
else and I am interested in learning more.
Correctly means a local TCP or unix-domain socket end-point. This
includes 127.0.0.1. The point is that the relevant setting is an
acceptor setting not an initiator setting.
127.0.0.1:10025 inet n - n - - smtpd
This is fine.
and finally in main.cf
content_filter=amavisfeed:[127.0.0.1]:10024
What's important here is that the Amavis server actually listens
on 127.0.0.1:10024, merely setting the Postfix SMTP client to initiate
to 127.0.0.1 is not enough.
I would be more than happy to move away from an IP port approach
(even localhost) to a unix-domain approach.
Keep it simple enough for you to understand.
thanks. I have to get all this going so I can do the testing I REALLY
intended to do, besides replace my current server.
I am going to be configuring the server to support HIP and truly mobile
clients communicating truly secure over a HIP enabled ESP connection. I
am suppose to have this in test tomorrow. Gulp. Time to cut and run at
least this test setup. I have installed the HIPL code and have a few
more configs there to do.
