The following is for FreeBSD. If this does not work, then you need to find help from people who have more time than I have. Wietse Turn off ANVIL exceptions. # postconf smtpd_client_event_limit_exceptions= # postfix reload Stop syslogd. # sh /etc/rc.d/syslogd stop Start syslogd BY HAND in debug mode: # syslogd -d Leave syslogd running like this.
