No has replied to my problem.  Can someone please help or post a reference for me to go to?


> I am having problems getting confirmation emails for print jobs.  I have 5 Macs running 10.6.2 with almost identical installations.  Postfix/sendmail/mail work fine from the command line in all 5 Macs.  However, 3 of them give this error in /var/log/mail.log:
