I'm trying to shift the office SMTP service of my NT server onto a Linux box but I'm having a few problems. I've started by choosing postfix as it was already installed on the SUSE 8.2 install I have. I've gone through the help files and read the man pages and main.cf config notes but time is running out and I 'm not progressing as well as I would like. Does anyone have a working main.cf file (and any other files that may be required) that I could use as a template. The supplied ones seem very generic. I can mail out direct from the Linux box using send mail so I know its not an internet connection issue but I can't mail from the box (or from another attached PC) using SMTP. All it needs to do is provide mail out via SMTP. Clients collect email direct from the ISPs POP3 server. I've checked the logs (mail.err, mail.warn, mail.info and mail) in /var/log and there don't seem to be any errors suggesting config errors but I suppose it doesn't highlight omissions that may be needed to get it working. Any suggestions on how I can get an outgoing mail server working would be greatly appreciated.
