I don't understand this line from today's logwatch report:
308 *Warning: Database file needs update
This message appears when you have a map file that requires
postmap'ing to bring the db file up to date relative to the source
file. Look at the log messages to see which file is not up to date and
run postmap on that file.
Thank's Mike. I found a mention of virtual with google, but since I
couldn't find the message in /var/log/mail*, I couldn't figure it out.
Its in the report at detail >= 5:
$ grep 'older than source' maillog | tail | \
postfix-logwatch --detail 5 --max_report_width=70

10 *Warning: Database file needs update ----------------------
9 /etc/postfix/virtual
1 /etc/postfix/transport
Also since I didn't find it, I just re-postmapped 'em all.
No need. The file is indicated in the log and via postfix-logwatch (or
logwatch w/detail >= 5).
Consider using a Makefile to keep source up to date, so that you can
just run "make" w/o thinking about which file needs updating.
