          Just setup this with an AWS SES setup for mail relay and I notice I am dropping mail with the following issue in the logs:

          
          Jun  4 11:13:32 firewall postfix/smtpd[62200]: connect from beast-areca.localhome.com[192.168.XX.XX]
          Jun  4 11:14:02 firewall postfix/smtpd[62200]: warning: connect to Milter service inet:localhost:8893: Operation timed out
          
          

          Any ideas?

            There are services not running. Check all milters enabled, opendkim, spf, etc..

              A few posts back I had some problems with installing the postfix and mailscanner packages. As a result some of the permissions / ownerships were not set correctly and the DKIM and SPF milter failed to install correctly.
              I've set the ownership to the postfix and mailscanner folders (/incoming ..etc) to user postfix so the temporary databases and incoming folders could be made ( my mails were stuck in the "on hold" queue)

              I've then re-installed the CPAN modules as noted in the mailscanner package , and afterwards installed the failed modules with the command;

              perl -MCPAN -e "install Mail::DKIM"
              (source https://forum.ivorde.com/spamassassin-sa-update-complains-about-not-installed-modules-t32.html

              Replace the packagename where required offcourse.

              It might not be the same problem as I had, but maybe it helps you.

                Hi, marcelloc! I think I found some minor bugs

                1. Auto whitelist doesn't work until I created manually «postscreen_spf_whitelist.cidr» file

                2. When I try to watch postfix configuration files «relay_recipients» I see blank page.

                  You can see this only, if you have  "Enable LDAP/URL fetch" ind the Recipients tab enabled.

                    Bismarck, "Enable LDAP/URL fetch" is already enabled, file "relay_recipients" contains 248 emails.

                      Mine is just working fine with aprox 750 lines, maybe you could have a look in /usr/local/www/postfix_view_config.php around line 33

                              		'recipients'=> POSTFIX_LOCALBASE . "/etc/postfix/relay_recipients",
                      

                      and check the paths etc. the code is pretty self explained.

                        Yeah, I found mistake.

                        Line 33 in my postfix_view_config.php is right
                        But line 99```

                        • relay_recipients
                        
                        Should be```
                        *   [relay_recipients](#)
                        

                        Not "relay", but "recipients"  ;)

                            Yes

                            What can i say about

                            1)  Auto whitelist doesn't work until I created manually «postscreen_spf_whitelist.cidr» file

                            I'm delete «postscreen_spf_whitelist.cidr» file, and start test again.
                            Domains in file "auto_whitelisted_domains" and CIDR in "auto_whitelisted_cidr" created automatically (previously has been the same), but recipients has not received emails (stasus "soft bounce") from this domains again.

                            I swapped the lines "cidr:/usr/local/etc/postfix/auto_whitelisted_cidr" and "cidr:/usr/local/etc/postfix/postscreen_spf_whitelist.cidr" in my "main.cf" (without creating file "postscreen_spf_whitelist.cidr")

                            postscreen_access_list = permit_mynetworks,
                            			cidr:/usr/local/etc/postfix/cal_cidr,
                            			cidr:/usr/local/etc/postfix/auto_whitelisted_cidr,
                            			cidr:/usr/local/etc/postfix/postscreen_spf_whitelist.cidr
                            
                            

                            And now all emails were delivered to recipients, auto whitelisting works fine.

                              Hi Marcelloc,

                              it appears that the FreeBSD repo has upgraded the MailScanner pkg to version 5.0.3 ( from 4.85.2 ). Unfortunately this breaks the mailscanner functionality. Since i'm not very good (i've actualy got no clue at all) in tracing back all the possible issues in the new package I thought I'd let you know.

                              I only saw it removes (or doesn't create) the file /usr/local/sbin/mailscanner .

                              fo now I've just downloaded the former package from http://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:11:amd64/release_0/All/MailScanner-4.85.2.txz and installed that on top of the 5.0.3 version, and that restores the mailscanner functionality.

                                  Good Morning,

                                  has somebody tested the postfix installer script on the 2.4 RC Version?
                                  Just to be ready when the 2.4 is released.  ::)

                                  regards,
                                  Ralf

                                    Postfix is one of most important packages for me. I hope to see it on version 2.4  ::)

                                      Hi Marcelloc,

                                      first of all thank you for your great work…

                                      While waiting for the package for 2.4 ;) I've upgraded pfSense to version 2.3.5 but postfix doesn't start, with the following message in the log:

                                      
                                      Nov 3 18:41:51 	php-fpm 	70404 	/pkg_edit.php: Postfix setup completed

                                      What can I try?

                                      Thanks…
                                      R.

                                      Update: after a couple of reboot and a reinstallation now postfix starts and works correctly...
                                      I'll wait for the 2.4 version of the script... Thanks!

                                          After update from 2.3.4 to 2.3.5, postfix need to be reinstalled:

                                          pkg install postfix
                                          

                                          or

                                          pkg install postfix-sasl
                                          

                                          will fix the missing libs, and postfix is operation normal again.

                                            Hi! I installed postfix on my pf 2.4.1 with marcelloc script.

                                            I changed "2.3" to "2.4" at line 25 and run script, but packages was not found in repos.

                                            I unlock the FreeBSD repo in

                                            /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf > enabled: yes

                                            /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/pfSense.conf > enabled: yes

                                            Then create xmlrpc.inc, because postfix.inc requires it

                                            touch /etc/inc/xmlrpc.inc

                                            I run script again, but have error "postwhite.conf not found"

                                            I do action from this post

                                            https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=40622.msg710038#msg710038

                                            and run srcipt again.

                                            In the end i have this error:

                                            updating soft bounce message status on databases..
                                            /var/db/postfix/20*dbError: near line 1: no such table: mail_noqueue
                                            ok

                                            I think it's not good, but postfix work fine. Massages transfered to my Exchange server, soft bounce work too.  ;)
