    just a heads up to people using monit...
    if you're using it to monitor postfix, and you use postgrey, create a configuration to monitor postgrey as well..

    it's not included in the monit configuration in the autoinstaller.. and after stopping all the mail services (stopped monit / postfix / postgrey / dovecot / rspamd) to replace a partition mounted at /var/vmail with a bigger partition.. i restarted monit, and let that restart the mail services... obviously it didn't restart postgrey.. and i found out.. later.. that the mailserver then rejects a lot of mail due to 'recipient address rejected, server configuration problem'
