That's absolutely normal. Postfix's 'master' process only spawns smtpd processes as needed to handle SMTP sessions. As shown, it listens on any ports that need persistent listeners, and hands off connections to child processes.

Actual log entries and actual configuration are essential information.

Thanks, I will look at the debugging link, perhaps I've not been there. BTW I fully understand it is likely I've done something really dumb. In comparing the setup with a kerberos system, one running webmail and a older version of the setup I am testing all work and I can not see/find any differences.

I was not clear. The system receives email just fine. It will not send. There are no log entries. The above output is from sockstat. I do not know what or if the linux equivalent is. On all the working systems the processes listed as postfix are present. They seem to be needed/used by the email clients to communicate with postfix to send mail. The sockstat output from a running system:

The postconf output is 1,000 lines. I've done a full compare with the working system finding nothing I will work on that and probably not bother anyone here further. I was going for things to look at and seem to have gotten what's available here. Thanks
