Chrooting Postfix in Panther

--------------
If you are only relaying outbound mail from computers on your local network, and not receiving any incoming mail, you could simply block attempts to connect to port 25 at the firewall, for anyone not in the 192.168.1.0/28 net. If it's only for outgoing mail from the local host, then you could just set inet_interfaces=127.0.0.1 and not even listen on external interfaces...

People on the internet need to connect to the mail server to send and receive email. So I would need for postfix to listen to connections coming from the internet. I'll look into chrooting postfix. does anyone know of a good tutorial for doing this on a Panter setup?
