Do note that I'm not running Postfix in a chroot, which can be a problem if you're following my steps as noted by ==[Bojan](https://bojanmilevski.com/)==; in the case that you want to run in chroot then add the steps chown in the Arch wiki: [Postfix in a chroot jail](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/postfix#Postfix_in_a_chroot_jail); the issue faced if following my steps and using a chroot is that there will be issues resolving the hostname due to `/etc/hosts` or `/etc/hostname` not being available in the chroot. + +All commands executed here are run with root privileges, unless stated otherwise. # Table of contents |
