Package: postfix Version: 2.7.1-1 Severity: normal I've performed two tests: 1) I've created a symbolic link in /var/spool/postfix/var/lib/postfix to point to /var/lib/postfix/verify_cache.db and the error in the logs was: Nov 3 14:57:11 pinto postfix/verify[12164]: close database /var/lib/postfix/verify_cache.db: Too many levels of symbolic links
2) I've moved the file from /var/lib/postfix to /var/spool/postfix/var/lib/postfix and the message in the logs is: Nov 3 15:01:32 pinto postfix/verify[12339]: cache /var/lib/postfix/verify_cache.db full cleanup: retained=0 dropped=0 entries Thus, my conclusion would be that verify_cache.db should be created from the start at /var/spool/postfix/var/lib/postfix since by default postfix is chrooted to /var/spool/postfix. The permissions for the /var/spool/postfix/var/lib/postfix directory and verify_cache.db file are postfix:postfix.
