This is odd, the FIFO group is "postfix", not "postdrop" on my system.
What is the primary group of the "postfix" user in /etc/passwd? It
should not be "postdrop", though I don't think that alone explains
the issue.

Looks like it is _postfix.  Perhaps this got set incorrectly.

    $ getent passwd postfix
    postfix:x:89:89::/var/spool/postfix:/sbin/nologin
    $ getent group 89
    postfix:x:89:
    $ getent group postdrop
    postdrop:x:90:

No getent on OSX. ;)

zimbra:~ zimbra$ id _postfix
uid=27(_postfix) gid=27(_postfix) groups=27(_postfix),29(certusers),30(_keytabusers)

so I'm guessing it is _postfix. I'll try setting the group to _postfix and see what happens.

Any ideas on why this would be reporting above error every few minutes,
when everything seems to be correct?

Some nss library is causing "postdrop" to chdir? What the working
directory of the process?

This is a standalone mac system, not using nss that I can see. :/

Thanks!
