Not wanting to hijack the hijack, and I don't really know which of these I set up myself, but just my seemingly related config that works to send mail from my server 'other' to postfix on 'this': this: /etc/postfix/aliases: arve@<other>.lan arve /etc/postfix/main.cf: mynetworks = 192.168.0.0/24, 127.0.0.0/8 other: /etc/mail/local-host-names: <this> etc/mail/mailertable: 192.168. smtp:<this> <this> esmtp:<this> Obviously 'other' has 'this' in /etc/hosts. And then I send mail with 'sendmail arve@<this>' (with sendmail from mail-mta/opensmtpd) Regards, Arve
