Thanks, very much. So when I hit "Send" on sylpheed, it goes on a tailspin, and says: Connecting to SMTP server: localhost
Looking at the /var/log/maillog as you suggested, I get: Oct 1 14:08:00 localhost postfix/smtpd[4142479]: fatal: in parameter smtpd_relay_restrictions or smtpd_recipient_restrictions, specify at least one working instance of: reject_unauth_destination, defer_unauth_destination, reject, defer, defer_if_permit or check_relay_domains Oct 1 14:08:01 localhost postfix/master[1216]: warning: process /usr/libexec/postfix/smtpd pid 4142479 exit status 1 Oct 1 14:08:01 localhost postfix/master[1216]: warning: /usr/libexec/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling And here is what happens when I send mail from the commandline: Oct 1 14:11:42 localhost postfix/pickup[3995696]: 44C4416239C: uid=1000 from=<usernam> Oct 1 14:11:42 localhost postfix/cleanup[4148016]: 44C4416239C: message-id=<[email protected]> Oct 1 14:11:42 localhostlocalhost postfix/qmgr[1218]: 44C4416239C: from=<[email protected]>, size=492, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Oct 1 14:11:42 localhost postfix/smtp[4148018]: 44C4416239C: to=<[email protected]>, relay=mailhub.name.removed[129.186.140.5]:25, delay=0.09, delays=0.07/0/0.01/0.02, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 091JBg2r014199 Message accepted for delivery) Oct 1 14:11:42 localhost postfix/cleanup[4148016]: 5D4A616239D: message-id=<[email protected]> Oct 1 14:11:42 localhost postfix/bounce[4148019]: 44C4416239C: sender delivery status notification: 5D4A616239D Oct 1 14:11:42 localhost postfix/qmgr[1218]: 5D4A616239D: from=<>, size=2305, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Oct 1 14:11:42 localhost postfix/qmgr[1218]: 44C4416239C: removed Oct 1 14:11:42 localhost postfix/local[4148020]: 5D4A616239D: to=<[email protected]>, relay=local, delay=0.07, delays=0.04/0/0/0.03, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to mailbox) Oct 1 14:11:42 localhost postfix/qmgr[1218]: 5D4A616239D: removed What should I be looking at from here? The thing is that sylpheed is set up exactly the same for my home (the same machine).
