Thanks for your reply and apologize for unconsciously breaking the mail list
rules.

I resolve the issue by re-installing Postfix. Originally I had installed
Postfix to use sql database, that is the issue I was having or so I assumed.


 

Thanks,

local_recipient_database is not a postfix parameter. please be rigorous
in what you report.


> The error:

/usr/local/etc/postfix/userdb.db:

please show the output of 'postconf -n'.

In the meantime, try
# rm /usr/local/etc/postfix/userdb.db
# postmap hash:/usr/local/etc/postfix/userdb

please obey the rules that you got when you subscribed to the list.
those rules weren't invented to annoy you, but to maximize your chances
of getting effective help.
start by showing output of 'postconf -n'.

one of the reasons we prefer 'postconf -n' is that it is alpha-ordered
which makes it easy for easy to look for parameters.
