Thanks for your reply.

When Googling for this problem, a number of the posts I found referenced this 
situation happening in jailed deployments and that’s what I’m running.  Most of 
these posts are from some time ago, so I assumed that with me running Postfix 
3.1 on a modern distro, the bug(s) in the Berkeley DB libraries that cause this 
issue would be fixed by the Berkeley DB developers.

The other reason is that the volume of these warnings seemed quite large.  I 
can, of course, filter that out, but I wondered if there was a workaround for 
this to suppress the warnings.  The workaround that I found works, I just 
wasn’t sure if it was the best solution.
