I have set up Postfix, MySQL, Courier etc etc... and everything looks good except that postfix can't deliver mail to local accounts In webmin I get this status message in postfixes queue on an incoming mail: Code: connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]: Connection refused . Pls help. Thanks, Darren
Did you install any antispam/antivirus software like amavis, spamassassin and/or clamav ? If so, then it probably isn't running, or it isn't configured to allow mails from localhost. Please give us some more info on the setup: O.S. + version output of main.cf extra soft installed as av/spam ? Thanks, Thanis

The outputs look ok. What's the output of Code: telnet localhost 25 and then Code: ehlo localhost ? Any errors in your mail log?
