Re: [Dbmail] Problems with initial config of DBmail, postfix fails to start w/ no errors
I have a line in main.cf: mailbox_transport = dbmail jbw Eli Stair wrote: Jesse, thanks for your response... That worked and postfix is accepting and delivering mail again, but not to DBmail.

Is that the same user? Sorry, I was unclear about that :) The dbmail binaries are installed and run as bin:bin, but the database account is dbmail... Also, your master.cf entry has a 0 for the private field, which offhand I don't know if that's valid. All mine have either - or n. Try changing that to - and give it a shot. That was that issue, postfix fires right up now. Now I know that even insanely verbose output doesn't catch everything. My typo.
