According to this RHEL bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=428996 Postfix 2.4 (and below, presumably, including 2.3 which was packaged with CentOS 5) used off_t for file offsets, which appears to be a 32-bit value on CentOS 5 32-bit. So that probably is the root cause.
If you have the freedom to move to CentOS 6 or 7, or even a 64-bit install of CentOS 5, Postfix probably will start to behave again.

Postfix bounced messages that would cause the inbox to go over the 2GB limit. That's how I found this problem and why I need to solve it today. -- Matt It's not what I know that counts. It's what I can remember in time to use. _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list Tech@lists.lopsa.org https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/ _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list Tech@lists.lopsa.org https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
