→Testing the connection to the Postfix Service
'''Perform the following steps:'''
# Connect from your '''vm2''' to itself using the '''nc ''' command by issuing the following command:<br><source lang="bash">nc localhost 25</source>
# You should see a response: <br><source lang="bash">220 vm2.yourdomain.org ESMTP Postfix</source>
# You could theoretically use SMTP commands to send an email here, but this would be a very unusual use of your mail server. You have an '''MUA''' for a reason.
