    I'm trying to edit the message_size_limt. I did not see one in the main.cf file but doing a...
    postconf -d | grep message_size_limit
    ... or a...
    postconf message_size_limit
    ...both showed...
    message_size_limit = 10240000

    So I went into the main.cf file and added a line...
    message_size_limit = 104857600

    Now when I do a...
    postconf message_size_limit
    ... I get...
    message_size_limit = 104857600
    ... but when I do a...
    postconf -d | grep message_size_limit
    ... I still get...
    message_size_limit = 10240000
    :eek:

    What would cause this? This still happens after reloading Postfix or restarting.
    Why would it show different information? Isn't it looking at the same data loaded from the main.cf file?

    Please have a look at the postconf manpage:

    postconf -d Print default parameter settings instead of actual settings.

    As Till said
    Code:
    postconf -d
    shows the default settings which are overridden by the settings in your main.cf so everything's fine.

    You can run
    Code:
    postconf -n
    to find out the actual settings.
