Thanks. I'm going to migrate aliases from flat file to ldap once the
configuration is working.
In related matters, I found the psotfix directives to check access file
to do restriction based on who the mail is to. using:
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = check_recipient_access
hash:/etc/postfix/access
as per docs. ran postmap /etc/postfix/access to generate the hashed
file permissions are ok but telneting to the server I can connect but
don't get a banner.
Any thoughts would be appriciated, in the meantime I'll be playing with
syntax.
Cheers,
Ashley
