Each instance has its own mail queue and scheduler. If an instance needs to receive mail via SMTP, THEN it needs its own IP address or TCP port. To submit mail with the Postfix sendmail command: /usr/sbin/sendmail -C config-directory-of-alternate-instance ... Begin quote from Postfix sendmail manpage -C config_file -C config_dir The path name of the Postfix main.cf file, or of its parent directory. This information is ignored with Postfix versions before 2.3. With all Postfix versions, you can specify a directory pathname with the MAIL_CONFIG environment variable to override the loca- tion of configuration files.
