(This is a reponse to both of your posts.) Thanks for coming to my rescue again, Chuck.
Actually I think I'm doing better than his 20102228 release - I'm using the 20011226 snapshot which, unless he was very full of "Christmas spirit" when he released it, should be better still. Yes, I found the "Corporate Envrionment" HOWTO, which better suits my setup - direct connection and NAT. I'm most of the way there, I think. As I was using sendmail previously, a couple of $username spool files are already there - certainly my own one. The most obvious problem at this point is that incoming mail is ending up in /var/spool/postfix/deferred, and I don't know why. Any ideas?
