Hello all my postfix smpt server started acting strangely after a year of 
flawless functioning. 

I am getting these messages in my mailqueue:

host 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1] said: 451 4.5.0 From MTA([127.0.0.1]:10025) during 
fwd-connect (Negative greeting: at (eval 87) line 442, <GEN30> line 6215.): 
id=12736-02-2 (in reply to end of DATA command)

I am using amavis for email filtering as well as postgrey

Postfix version 2.5.1  Ubuntu Server 8.04 LTS


also when I try to start postfix     /etc/init.d/postfix start  I get:



 * Stopping Postfix Mail Transport Agent postfix    postfix/postfix-script: 
fatal: usage: postfix start (or stop, reload, abort, flush, check, 
set-permissions, upgrade-configuration)
                                                                         [fail]



But I can start postfix through the postfix webmin module.  


I have tried removing and reinstalling postfix, amavis and postgrey with no 
luck. 

I have made no changes to configurations. Just run normal updates.  

I searched the internet for a solution but no luck.  does anybody have an idea 
about what could be the issue?
