Post the output of: $ postconf -n config_directory $ sudo ls -l /proc/32259/cwd Perhaps this particular "master" is from a different Postfix configuration. Also why all the indirection throuh "init.d". Simpler: $ sudo postfix stop Finally: http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#mail Don't overly minimize the information you post, Are any other postfix processes running, whose parent process id is 32259? -- Viktor.
