[rt-users] configuring mail gateway Mac OS X

[Derek Cunningham]

Hi Frank,

Thanks, I hadn't granted that right.  I did it, and I still didn't  
get a ticket from that command.  Is that the result I should expect?   
It seems like there is something I need to do to activate postfix on  
OS X that I've missed.
