Re: [opensuse] Yast Mail Tranfer Agent doesn't update relayhost in main.cf of Postfix

Hi,

I'm using openSuse 11 and I use sendmail as the transport agent of my e-mail
client: KMail.

In previous openSuSE versions, Yast MTA writed the name of the relayhost in
the main.cf file of Postfix. Now is not doing it. I had to copy all Postfix
config files from the 10.3 installation for Postfix work as it worked:
delivering my e-mail throughout a external SMTP server.

So, are you using Sendmail or Postfix?

After that copy, I tried to changed the name of the relayserver in 11 with
Yast and it did write a new name in main.cf.

I'm I doing something wrong or it's a bug?

Can't say, I suspect you have altered main.cf manually sometime before trying
to change the relayhost in yast. Afterwards Yast will not touch the Postfix
config files.
