If you have postfix configured in your /etc/mail/mailer.conf (answered yes to
|
|
the previous question) and would like to enable postfix to start at boot time,
|
|
please set these variables in your /etc/rc.conf file:
|
|
|
|
sendmail_enable="YES"
|
|
sendmail_flags="-bd"
|
|
sendmail_outbound_enable="NO"
|
|
sendmail_submit_enable="NO"
|
|
sendmail_msp_queue_enable="NO"
|
|
|
|
**OR**
|
|
|
|
sendmail_enable="NONE"
|
|
|
|
then type this command as root:
|
|
|
|
ln -s /usr/local/sbin/postfix /usr/local/etc/rc.d/postfix.sh
|
|
|
|
Either of these will disable Sendmail completely. The latter form is useful
|
|
if you need to wait until other local package initialization (such as ldconfig
|
|
for Postgres or MySQL) is done. The former method will start postfix very
|
|
early on in the boot process.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Also, you will want to disable some Sendmail-specific daily maintenance
|
|
routines in your /etc/periodic.conf file:
|
|
|
|
daily_status_mail_rejects_enable="NO"
|
|
daily_status_include_submit_mailq="NO"
|
|
daily_submit_queuerun="NO"
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are using SASL, you need to make sure that postfix has access to read
|
|
the sasldb file. This is accomplished by adding postfix to group mail and
|
|
making the /usr/local/etc/sasldb* file(s) readable by group mail (this should
|
|
be the default for new installs).
