I do believe it does not work with 7.3. It does not start postfix as it did in 6.8 and earlier versions. There may be other problems besides that as well. Figured out it wasn't a firewall issue when I would telnet to localhost 25 and got connection refused. As soon as I started postfix manually, I could connect. Mail works now that it has been uninstalled and adding a few things from last night that were posted. I have setup clamav and spamassassin using this guide. http://www.tecmint.com/integrate-clamav-and-spamassassin-to-protect-postfix- mails-from-viruses/ Seems to work.
