I upgraded a server to 5.2-RELEASE last weekend and since then I've had no end of trouble with the postfix mail server. Mail hangs in the queue with errors like: 81D5A90020 15421 Mon Jan 12 10:42:23 email_at_address (temporary failure. Command output: couldn't connect to lmtpd: Unknown error: 0_ 421 4.3.0 deliver: couldn't connect to lmtpd_ ) It appears that the lmtpd is hanging on syslog output... nothing is getting written to syslog at all. If I kill and restart syslogd by hand I get: # /usr/sbin/syslogd -s syslogd: timed out waiting for child Is this a known problem? Is there a workaround?
