is rumored to have said:
I have tried to stick to the Server versions, but I now see I am
running the std. master, with the daemon_directory and
config_directory set to the Server versions.
That is almost certain to cause trouble.
Beyond the configuration tangle, the MacOS X Server version of Postfix
has to be quite outdated at this point. The recent security issues have
been rather arcane and limited (e.g. SMTP smuggling) but it would be
wise to run something more current.
So I think it is a little mixed and I should probably try and move it
all to the std. install and try and ignore all the Server special
versions.
One way to do that relatively painlessly on a Mac is to use MacPorts.
They have builds of current open source packages for systems going back
to Tiger (!) and they keep Postfix and related mail tools current and
functional.
