nis
pcre
proxy
regexp
static
unix

[root@server ~]# lsb_release -a

I have also installed rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm but still no joy

i think it's in the centosplus repo:

Code:

yum --enablerepo=centosplus install postfix

Hello,

Thanks for the update, however it still doesn't seem to be working:

Code:

[root@server ~]# yum --enablerepo=centosplus install postfix

Any ideas?

had to add:

exclude=postfix

for the [base] repos, cheers

you should delete the current version of postfix, and, for future safety,
exclude postfix from base and updates repo /etc/yum.repo.d/CentOS-Base.repo:

Code:

[base]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Base
...
exclude=postfix*

#released updates 
[updates]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates
...
exclude=postfix*
