> # MBSE BBS - Internet Gateway - Postfix setup.

> Of course you need to make all these changes as root. Add the mbmail program as service to the postfix system by adding two lines to master.cf.

>     #
>     # Postfix master process configuration file.  Each line describes how
>     # a mailer component program should be run. The fields that make up
>     # each line are described below. A "-" field value requests that a
>     # default value be used for that field.
>     #
>     # Service: any name that is valid for the specified transport type
>     # (the next field).  With INET transports, a service is specified as
>     # host:port.  The host part (and colon) may be omitted. Either host
>     # or port may be given in symbolic form or in numeric form. Examples
>     # for the SMTP server:  localhost:smtp receives mail via the loopback
>     # interface only; 10025 receives mail on port 10025.
>     #
>     # Transport type: "inet" for Internet sockets, "unix" for UNIX-domain
>     # sockets, "fifo" for named pipes.
>     #
>     # Private: whether or not access is restricted to the mail system.
>     # Default is private service.  Internet (inet) sockets can't be private.
>     #
>     # Unprivileged: whether the service runs with root privileges or as
>     # the owner of the Postfix system (the owner name is controlled by the
>     # mail_owner configuration variable in the main.cf file).
>     #
>     # Chroot: whether or not the service runs chrooted to the mail queue
>     # directory (pathname is controlled by the queue_directory configuration
>     # variable in the main.cf file). Presently, all Postfix daemons can run
>     # chrooted, except for the pipe and local daemons. The files in the
>     # examples/chroot-setup subdirectory describe how to set up a Postfix
>     # chroot environment for your type of machine.
>     #
>     # Wakeup time: automatically wake up the named service after the
>     # specified number of seconds.  Specify 0 for no wakeup. Presently,
>     # only the local pickup and queue manager daemons need a wakeup timer.
>     #
>     # Max procs: the maximum number of processes that may execute this
>     # service simultaneously. Default is to use a globally configurable
>     # limit (the default_process_limit configuration parameter in main.cf).
>     #
>     # Command + args: the command to be executed. The command name is
>     # relative to the Postfix program directory (pathname is controlled by
>     # the program_directory configuration variable). Adding one or more
>     # -v options turns on verbose logging for that service; adding a -D
>     # option enables symbolic debugging (see the debugger_command variable
>     # in the main.cf configuration file).
>     #
>     # In order to use the "uucp" message tranport below, set up entries
>     # in the transport table.
>     #
>     # In order to use the "cyrus" message transport below, configure it
>     # in main.cf as the mailbox_transport.
>     #
>     # SPECIFY ONLY PROGRAMS THAT ARE WRITTEN TO RUN AS POSTFIX DAEMONS.
>     # ALL DAEMONS SPECIFIED HERE MUST SPEAK A POSTFIX-INTERNAL PROTOCOL.

> In main.cf change or add the line:

> The fidonet address will be your fidonet address of course. If you have more fidonet aka's, add them as well seperated with commas.

> Next you need to add mbmail to the transport file.
