    Hello,
    I use ubuntu 20 and ISPConfig 3.2.6

    tonight, monit told me that from 3am it is impossible to connect to postfix port 25.
    I discover that at same time my server cert was renewed.
    I have a multi server conf. On that server, I have a simple "satellite" conf.
    postfix cert is symlink with ispconfig as per ISPConfig classical install.
    Syslog shows nothing on that.
    Please help !

    Restart postfix and then check the mail.log to see which error you get.

    I found that
    Dec 2 03:08:50 web1 postfix/smtpd[1239061]: connect from localhost[::1]
    Dec 2 03:08:50 web1 postfix/smtpd[1239061]: warning: SASL: Connect to private/auth failed: Connection refused
    Dec 2 03:08:50 web1 postfix/smtpd[1239061]: fatal: no SASL authentication

    It confirms what i though

    Then restart dovecot.

    I am on a web server
    It is 'satellite' ie relay host conf
    I don't have dovecot !

    I made several tests.

    1. update ispconfig to 3.2.7p1 (I had to)
    it takes few times because now it calls mysql with IPv6 so I had to create user with IPv6
    For concerns server, as it is NOT a mail server, mail wasn't reconfigured
    Below is extract of update process
    Code:
    Reconfigure Services? (yes,no,selected) [yes]:
    Configuring Pureftpd
    Configuring Apache
    Configuring vlogger
    Configuring Apps vhost
    Configuring Jailkit
    Configuring Ubuntu Firewall
    Configuring Database
    Updating ISPConfig
    Certificate exists. Not creating a new one.
    
    2. I review postfix conf
    grep "tls" main.cf gives
    Code:
    smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/postfix/smtpd.cert
    smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/postfix/smtpd.key
    smtpd_tls_security_level = may
    smtp_tls_CApath=/etc/ssl/certs
    smtp_tls_security_level = dane
    smtp_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${data_directory}/smtp_scache
    postscreen_enforce_tls = $smtpd_enforce_tls
    postscreen_use_tls = $smtpd_use_tls
    postscreen_tls_security_level = $smtpd_tls_security_level
    smtpd_use_tls = yes
    smtpd_tls_mandatory_protocols = !SSLv2, !SSLv3
    smtpd_tls_protocols = !SSLv2,!SSLv3
    smtp_tls_protocols = !SSLv2,!SSLv3
    smtpd_tls_exclude_ciphers = RC4, aNULL
    smtp_tls_exclude_ciphers = RC4, aNULL
    smtpd_tls_mandatory_ciphers = medium
    tls_medium_cipherlist = ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305:ECDHE-RSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305:DHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:DHE-RSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA256:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-SHA:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA:DHE-RSA-AES128-SHA256:DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA256:AES128-GCM-SHA256:AES256-GCM-SHA384:AES128-SHA256:AES256-SHA256:AES128-SHA:AES256-SHA:DES-CBC3-SHA
    tls_preempt_cipherlist = yes
    smtp_sasl_tls_security_options = noanonymous
    
    I see nothing strange.

    3. I check owner of cert files and symlinks.
    There are all root:root

    Any idea ?

    I read https://git.ispconfig.org/ispconfig/ispconfig3/-/issues/5941
    But, I don't see which settings where added to postfix

    I need to mention that this server has previously a configuration with a "normal" postfix.
    I downgrade removing postfix, dovecot and reinstalling postfix with 'satellite option'

    May be you can help check postfix conf...

    Post your main.cf. My guess as to what happened could well be wrong,

    Rechecking, I see that postscreen remains in my conf.
    I remove it.
    So that, you can see here below :

    Sorry, it's very long !
    thanks for your help :)

    As I said, I first install postfix.
    Next, apt remove --purge (it is quite far from now, but, I think I don't rm /etc/postfix)
    and after :
    Code:
    echo "postfix postfix/main_mailer_type select 'Satellite system'" | debconf-set-selections
    echo "postfix postfix/mailname string dom.fr" | debconf-set-selections
    echo "postfix postfix/relayhost string mailserv.dom.fr" | debconf-set-selections
    apt install postfix postfix-mysql postfix-doc getmail4
    
    seeing how long is main.cf, not sure conf is the one it should be ?!

    Both your main.cf and master.cf have config from ISPConfig, so it probably was that bug mentioned (ie. the installer configured postfix on your server even though it's not setup as an ISPConfig mail server). You could clean those up manually, or it might be faster to just find a default copy from another server, or even purge the postfix package and reinstall.

    The ISPConfig updater takes a backup of the whole /etc/ directory during backup, you can find a folder for each update in /var/backup folder where you can get a copy of your postfix config from before update.
