I'm setting up a new server and I want it to be able to email me if anything goes wrong. (e.g. raid drive fails) I new I also eventually wanted to set it up as a personal email aswell so I thought I'd go ahead and set up a full email server.
After looking around I decided on OpenSMTPD. I configured everything and the check said it was okay, but when I try to run it this is the result:
[dornith@linux-server-01->~]
(0) $ sudo systemctl start smtpd
[dornith@linux-server-01->~]
(0) $ sudo journalctl -xn 26

I don't know what happened, but some how, in my random trying various things and hope something works, I got it to work.
Edit: Okay, the error was coming from the fact that I hd multiple "listen ons"
