Please could you tell me where I am going wrong and how I can fix it? many thanks Superman
I did the tutorial 2-3 times without problems... Seems like a privilege issue you have... Did you run everything under root? Try this : chmod o= /etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_*.cf chgrp postfix /etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_*.cf
Hi Guys. Not sure what I did wrong, but thanks for the replies. I reinstalled the server from the start and all is working fine now. Thanks Superman
