Hello;
I have been trying to test my Postfix installation on FreeBSD 6.2
I tried sending e-mail to the host at the address of this message.

Here are some e-mail to root messages on this machine:
(names changed to protect the innocent)

4FC294F1065 2526 Sun Nov 11 13:49:20 MAILER-DAEMON
(connect to domain.tld[ip address]: Connection refused)
root

84E684F101B 337 Mon Nov 12 19:36:49 root
(connect to domain.tld[ip address]: Connection refused)
jekillen

0EAE64F1021 349 Tue Nov 13 19:46:40 jekillen
(connect to domain.tld[ip address]: Connection refused)
jekillen

And the ip addresses are public static ip addresses.

I have mynetworks_style set to subnet. If I understand this correctly,
It governs what messages will be relayed from what addresses but
not what messages are addressed directly to the user@$mydomain
Why am I getting these connection refused messages?
Particularly, why messages generated locally and addressed to root.
I think I am swimming in a pond with too many things going on.

Thank you In advance for info, suggestions, advice
Jeff K
