Hello,
Being in the process of trying to upgrade an old postfix 2 (with a
postfix 1) configuration to postfix 3, using compatibility_level = 3, I
am having a bit a hard time getting lmtp up and running.
The logs read:
postfix/local[2856]: warning: connect #1 to subsystem private/lmpt: No
such file or directory
This error bears two riddles: First, the file
$queue_directory/private/lmpt does exist as a socket, with
postfix:postfix ownership.
However, there is nothing listening on the other side of the socket,
because, riddle no. 2, in main.cf I've specified:
mailbox_transport = lmpt:unix:/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp
so postfix should not use private/lmpt at all in fist place. Event after
freeing postfix from chroot by changing all "y" into "n" in master.cf,
there is no change.
Further, to my surpise, when specifying a tcp port instead of a socket:
mailbox_transport = lmpt:localhost:24
the error message does not change, either. Even with now a process
listening on this tcp socket.
Seems, mailbox_transport is ignored. But why? What is wrong here?
Anyone be so kind to shed some light?
Thanks
Ede
