Hi, A consultant, long gone, set up postfix, dovecot, amavisd and squirrelmail for my wife. It works fine but my wife wants to change the server name from old.com to new.com so the name is more appropriate for her business. My approach would be to use sed to change all occurences of old.com to new.com. Specifically, I used grep to identify the following files where I should make the changes.
/etc/postfix/main.cf /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf /etc/squirrelmail/config.php /etc/amavisd.conf /etc/sysconfig/network (change host name) In addition, there would be an MX record for mail.new.com pointing to the IP of the server.
My question is, will this work or will I corrupt my email server? If I mess it up I can always restore it to the original.
Thank you, Joe
