3rd paragraph |
on page 35 under the heading Configuration Files, the text states that "the SMTP
daemon only needs one configuration file to run: /var/9781565926288/rcpthosts".
then on page 38 it mentions /var/9781565926288/rcpthosts again: "you should have already put
the list of locally handled domains into /var/9781565926288/rcpthosts. (If not, do so now.)"
the path should be:
/var/9781565926288/control/rcpthosts
