postfix not loading on startup


I was wondering how to get postfix to start automatically on startup. I'm running RH8 and it isn't in the 'services' utility that controls what is automatically started after boot. Thanks!

You can always put a line in /etc/rc.d/rc.local similar to:
Code:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/postfix start

all users...

Will this start postfix for all users or just one? How about when the computer is rebooted and waiting for a login? (i.e. If the power goes out and I'm not home to login...)
