From: Carlos Williams on 22 Feb 2010 09:17 Does anyone happen to know if anyone is kindly dedicating their time to creating a Postfix 2.7 RPM for download? I know this is extremely time consuming but I am really interested to try out Postfix 2.7 on my CentOS x64 server. I realize Simon was responsible for creating the previous RPM's available on a mirror but I don't know if he is still doing so. I never saw a 2.6.5-3 RPM (only 2.6.5-1) and wasn't sure if he would continue to do so or only with major release versions. Thanks for any info! **PS** Yes I am very aware anyone including myself could create a RPM from source using the SRPM's however I attempted this in the past and failed miserably. -Carlos

If someone can help me with a doc on creating a ".src.rpm" package I would like to try it Thanks Ram > -- > Eero
