From: Rajen.Jani on 18 Sep 2007 10:49 Hello eveyone, I have just about gone mad with this problem. I am trying to send my mail remotely via thunderbird but what happens is that it connects to the postfix server and as this happens the maillog gives the following error: Sep 18 15:27:57 ldap postfix/cleanup[68993]: fatal: open database usr/ local/etc/postfix/virtual.db: No such file or directory Sep 18 15:27:58 ldap postfix/master[67922]: warning: process /usr/ local/libexec/postfix/cleanup pid 68993 exit status 1 Sep 18 15:27:58 ldap postfix/master[67922]: warning: /usr/local/ libexec/postfix/cleanup: bad command startup -- throttling Now I have entered the following in the virtual file: vnayak(a)my-domain.com vnayak then I did this: postmap virtual This produces the virtual.db file. I then do "postfix reload" Postfix restarts. And as soon as I try to send mail from thunderbird I get the same error on the postfix maillog. I really have no clue what to do. If I get rid of the virtual.db file and not bother with it at all then I will get a relay access error. This has been clearly documented on the Postfix website. I don't know what is irritating this server. I can send emails from the server quite well and my pop3 server works ok. I am not using any authentications at the moment. I will do that once the basic is sorted. Any help will be much appreciated. P.S. in my main.cf I have put virtual_alias_domains = my-domain.com virtual_alias_maps = hash:usr/local/etc/postfix/virtual and I am using FreeBSD 6 Thanks Rajen |
