Re: [EnGarde] Re: pop-before-smtp daemon is available
Thanks for taking the time to look into my troubles. I have not changed the
main.cf file much but will include it anyways. Perhaps it is the 2 lines
that make the difference. The server was freshly formatted today and has 1
NIC and is behind a router, while it is set to dmz. Therefore, it's IP is
192.168.2.100, while the others comps in the network are 192.168.2.x. Thank
you again for helping me out.
