FQDN Misery Re: To: Postfix, Mutt And No Root Mail? & amavisd-new Install

[Leonard Chatagnier]

Derek,
I don't mean to be rude but you seem to want to argue
the main.cf and amavisd-new install issues rather than
offer help, at least on the last couple of posts.  I
spend so much time answering them that I haven't time
to look at main.cf again and try to implement the
suggestions. And I'm not doing anything with
amavisd-new now anyway. So, I'm just going to reply to
new suggestion and report back when I've implemented
and tested changes.
Thanks for you main.cf and postfix suggestions and
have a great day.
