Hi guys, I have been following this tutorial about using postfix and mysql. http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-users-and-domains-postfix-courier-mysql-fedora8-p4 My problem is when i telnet localhost 25 i get # telnet localhost 25 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. and then no matter what i type nothing happens. I cannot quit, ehlo localhost or anything. other than that, the tutorial was a complete success.
Please enter: ehlo localhost and then hit the return key to get the smtp options listed. If you want to quit the connectione, enter: quit and hit return. If this all wont work, hit the keys [ctrl] + [c]
Hi tim thanks but the problem is that I can't enter any commands. I get as far as above then no more. I followed the tutorial to the letter and my postfix does not respond after I telnet.
hi there, my /var/log/maillog has these errors and my main.cf says... the hostnames are in the /etc/hosts file. postconf -m reveals Thanks for your help
This means that your Postfix doesn't have MySQL support. Did you see any errors when you compiled it with the quota patch?
