Good Day All! I am attempting to configure deliver as our LDA. I am
also configuring the server to use Postfix instead of Sendmail. I
have followed the all the documentation and examples I could find.
Below are my Dovecot and Postfix configs. Can someone please smack me
upside the head and tell me why I am getting "user unknown" errors?
If i don't use deliver as the LDA, all works perfectly. Help...
TIA,
glenn
