I setup with the following howto http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_spam_filter_mail_gateway The spam server is then supposed to pass on to a exchange server and continue on. My emails are failing to be forwarded now though. And if someone had some insight I would be thrilled.

If i am going about setting up a spam server the wrong way using the afore mentioned howto I would be intrested in that input as well. Thanks in advance
Please post the outputs of Code: postconf -d and Code: postconf -n Also, what's the output of Code: ls -l /etc/postfix ?
