Hi,

I've an OpenBSD box that's been running postfix for a few
years, strictly as a "send-only" mta, and every night the
box gets rebooted.  Every couple of months postfix does
not come up on reboot.

All that shows up in the logs is:
<snip> postfix/postfix-script[3005]: fatal: Postfix integrity check
failed!

My suspicion is that syslogd has not yet finished
making the log socket and the "postfix check" that
happens at postfix start fails.

(/etc/rc.conf.local has:
syslogd_flags="-a /var/spool/postfix/dev/log"
)

I can always log in and start postfix manually
using the same sendmail command that the rc scripts
use.

Any suggestions as to how to confirm the problem
and/or what to do about it?  Does anyone else have
this problem?  Should I be talking to the postfix
port maintainer?

FWIW the box is old and slow, a 500MHz-ish i386-ish something.

Clearly this does not have my undies in a bunch,
but it would be nice to make the problem go away.

Thanks for the help.
