There wasn't a /dev/*random when Postfix was initially ported to MacOSX, and no-one has told me when /dev/*random were added. Perhaps you can provide "uname -s" and "uname -r". Have you verified that these work? Unfortunately existence does not always mean it works. Last time someone checked, MacOS X kqueue support was still broken for Postfix. Wietse
