I'm setting up a Postfix mail server and rather new to freebsd FreeBSD. I would appreciate some help in adding public IP's to the appropriate configuration files and for Postfix/Dovecot.
That's it, the host names don't need to go anywhere. Somewhere I heard that hosts.conf needs to be updated. Also, there are some Postfix entries and Dovecot right?
This is going to depend on your local network. The /etc/hosts file is only consulted on the one system. You'll have to put you appropriate MX records into your DNS server so that it gets referenced from the outside properly. As far as if Postfix or Dovecot need them hard coded, I've never worked with them so can't answer that.
