Hi!
I would lilke to automatically check if postfix is OK.
So i run postfix check.
Example:
# chmod 555 /usr/sbin/postqueue
# postfix check
postfix/postfix-script: warning: not set-gid or not owner+group+world
executable: /usr/sbin/postqueue
Because postfix check doesn't set the exit-code i t
Hi,
i think i found the problem:
postfix calls postfix-script which uses postlog for output.
from man postlog:
Logging is sent to syslogd(8); when the standard error stream is
connected to a terminal, logging is sent there as well.
Since stderr is no longer the terminal when i use redirect

It sounds as if you're trying to monitor postfix health.
Unfortunately "postfix check" isn't very useful for that, as it's

Or, do they -- instead -- use /etc/alternatives/sendmail if it exists & is
