I spoke too soon: it does not send e-mail from my office machine. From my home
machine, it appears to send e-mail. I don't know what to send but here are the
differences in the two cases for the office.machine and home.machine, followed
by selinux in permissive mode and then all mail (including accumulated mail
getting delivered). Any suggestions. I would like to get to the bottom of this.
I wonder if in the home machine, it still works because the postfix was running
when selinux was enabled, whereas in the office machine I restarted postfix and
enabling selinux. This is just an uniformed musing.
Thanks again, Ranjan
