RIGHT. That's what the post was about. And
setting
the hostname as I described has corrected this
"Linux"
configuration problem (not a "courier" problem).
The
whole point is that this is NOT a courier problem,
but
if people running courier experience this, they
should
make sure that their hostname is set properly.
That is one reason I did not install Courier MTA,
only the IMAP part from
Debian packages. I am more familiar with Postfix
and there are books to help
me with Postfix (Are there books for Courier?) and
I'm afraid that I'm not aware of any Courier books.
You are warned at the start of the installation manual
to "Read this document in its entirety before entering
a single command". And you are best to heed this
warning! However, the install info alone currently is
missing some things (like information on the esmtphelo
file...), so I'd further recommend reading every man
page before issuing a single command as well. And
then re-read all of these things before you upgrade to
a new version. And before you build/install it on a
different machine... But whatever you do, again read
the entire website and all of the source code before
you dare post to the courier-users list :-P
Of course, if you decide to go with Courier, I'm sure
friendly people like Bill and Michelle would be happy
to help you!!!
In all seriousness, the system is very fully featured
and I do prefer it to any other "complete" mail system
that I've looked at.
Best of luck!
