Question on testing Postfix

I'm running Mandriva 2007.1 (Spring Free)

I tried to check postifx with the telnet command telnet localhost 25
and it connected with no issues.

However, when I run ehlo localhost, I get nothing.

 

Any errors in your mail log?
What's the output of

Code:

postconf -n

? What's the output of

Code:

hostname -f

? What's in /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf?

 

I went back and looked at the postconf listing and found one entry missing and one that was wrong.

Once I'd put them in, ehlo ran as expected.

Thanks again.
