Please forgive me but this postfix is brand new to me and I am pretty much ignorant about the system.
Alright, I have read the documentation and attempted to configure my own email server but it appears to me that the documentation is not telling me everything I really need to do in order to start my own email server. It seems like the documentations jumps from one area to another as well as modifying files somewhere else in the directory structure of /etc. Any recommendations?
At this point I am only interested in is getting a basic email server up and running. I have my own domain registered with a sub domain for the email system.
Here is what I did so far:
myhostname = mail.thedomainIRegistered.com
mydomain = thedomainIRegistered.com
myorigin = $mydomain
I created a file within postfix folder called mydestination. I edited this file to include the domain and sub domain I registered.
OS: Fedora Core 7 w/SELinux running to allow mail and some other services.
