hi,
i've got a mail firewall/gateway and try to follow the instruction in http://www.postfix.org/STANDARD_CONFIGURATION_README.html to disable all local delivery. the only problem with this approach is that even root's mail are dropped, ie. even if i has a line in /etc/aliases root: [hidden email] the locally generated (daemon) mails still dropped by postfix (even the alias are remote). so what is the preferred way to disable local delivery but deliver locally generated daemon's mail to an external email address? thanks. -- Levente "Si vis pacem para bellum!" |
