[opensuse] smtp relay for send mail



ok, i tried setting up the mta using yast. This did not work quite as well as i'd liked.

I've now manually edited the main.cf file as you suggested Sandy. I had to create the file '/etc/postfix/smtp_relayhost_auth' as it was not there, and entered the server and username/passwd for my isp.

i restarted postfix as you advised. It seems i'm getting mail ok but can't send now.
