Whatever milter you are trying to use on port 12301 (possibly
OpenDKIM?)
is not running or something in your system config (e.g. iptables
firewall) is blocking connections to it.
This smells of the submission smtpd(8) being chrooted in master.cf(5)
and there not being either a usable "etc/hosts" in the chroot jail,
(other potentially missing files include "etc/nsswitch.conf" and
"etc/resolv.conf"). Bottom line, "localhost" fails to resolve to
an address with an "ENOENT" errno.
If that is the cause, it would seem that the main smtpd is also
suffering from the same issue, as it is also reporting that problem.
