I don't know if anyone will be able to assist me with this one, but two days ago I decided to redo our mail server.
All went well except for one components.. Pop-before-smtp, it seems no matter what I did it would simply cause postfix hassles. Now I know pop-before-smtp is confed correctly as old working config was used... I also know that it DOES create the pop-before-smtp.db file on start if I delete it manually as test. I can also check if there are any ip's in db by doing pop-before-smtp -list. (IT OBVIOUSLY RETURNED NOTHIN) However postfix keeps throwing errors to the following.. Aug 25 15:31:21 thavinci postfix/smtpd[77983]: fatal: open database /usr/local/etc/postfix/pop-before-smtp.db: Invalid argument Aug 25 11:14:49 thavinci postfix/smtpd[88389]: fatal: open database /usr/local/etc/postfix/pop-before-smtp.db: Inappropriate file type or format Aug 25 12:17:11 thavinci postfix/smtpd[40445]: fatal: open database /usr/local/etc/postfix/pop-before-smtp.db: Bad file descriptor And that is the correct location and postfix was compile directly from ports with option BDB which I understand is required to read this file. Ive been trying for a day straight trying to resolve this and had to continue without this feature for now to allow mail to run.. At this stage I would worship the ground of anyone that could help me solve this!!!
