Or just comment out both the IPv4 and IPv6 DAEMON_OPTIONS lines, leaving the
smtp/smtps lines alone. I didn't notice that in the config he posted; good
catch.

I sent Andy my box's .mc and it has both commented out.

Thanks,

Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor
do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger
is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either
a daring adventure, or nothing.
