I used to run postfix chrooted but no longer do so.
|find /var/spool/postfix -type f -ls|
shows a list of files in /var/spool/postfix/pid/ with names inet.* and
unix.*, all very old and zero-length. Is this a hangover from running
postfix chrooted? Can I remove them all?
You can delete these files safely only after Postfix is stopped.
It also shows a few files in /var/spool/postfix/defer, some a few days
old others much older. |postqueue -p| reports 'Mail queue is empty'.
Question ditto.
Answer ditto.

Thanks Wietse. Most of (or perhaps all) the pid files were recreated
anyway when, or shortly after, postfix restarted.
