I got this strange error massage that came in my maillog today. It seems like the file is missing, i searched for passwd.db but dident find any file whith that name. Anyone that know what could have happend, or know how to fix it?. /var/log/mail: Sep 10 23:59:05 webserver postfix/smtp[28849]: fatal: open database /etc/postfix/passwd.db: No such file or directory Sep 11 00:00:06 webserver postfix/smtp[29207]: fatal: open database /etc/postfix/passwd.db: No such file or directory Sep 11 00:01:07 webserver postfix/smtp[29305]: fatal: open database /etc/postfix/passwd.db: No such file or directory tnx Salomon

smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/passwd Is it this line that makes the problem??, Why is this line there if it is not used by ispconfig?.
It's used if you want to relay mails through a third-party server (see http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=72&highlight=relayhost ) which obvioulsy you don't do because relayhost is not set in your configuration. Comment out the smtp_sasl_password_maps line and restart Postfix.
