I'm trying to set up TLS on Postfix 2.5.5 and 'tlsmgr' keeps getting a fatal

It seems to work when I comment it out but I don't really understand what it
does or if it is needed for TLS to work let alone what it should be to fix it.

Hello:
I have had virtual aliases and mailboxes working well for years. I have
always had a separated virtual_*_domains and virtual_*_maps file. Now I
am combining them to make administration easier.
For virtual aliases, I simply commented out the virtual_alias_domains
directive in the main.

Hi Noel,
Thanks. I think that is what I really wanted to know. That parameter was
configured automatically by an installer, I think, so if I don't need it then
all the better. TLS does appear to be working so I guess I won't worry.

This suggests that MacOS /dev/urandom has a broken poll() interface.
What other /dev/*random devices do you have? As long as you use a
device that does not block, Postfix will be fine.

It appears the reason that a over-quota notification email is not being
received by the sender is because according to the logs Postfix is sending
these with a NULL sender.
