Postfix forwarder - warning messages

[biggsy]

Hi Marcello,

Today I've suddenly started to see the following messages repeating in syslog:

warning: database /usr/local/etc/postfix/sender_access.db is older than source file /usr/local/etc/postfix/sender_access
postfix/trivial-rewrite[11876]: warning: database /usr/local/etc/postfix/transport.db is older than source file /usr/local/etc/postfix/transport

Emails still seem to be coming through OK but the only clue I could find from Google was:

Every time you make a change to the DB files like sender_access, helo_access, etc…you need to postmap them to update the .db files.

Any idea what this means?

what version of postfix forwarder are you using?

[biggsy]

2.8.7,1 pkg v.2.3.3

It's a pity that you can only see packages that haven't been installed in the Available Packages page - no easy way to see if the currently installed version is out of date.

Saved the postfix config last night (with no changes) and no warning messages today.  I'll watch to see if they appear again.

When there is updates to installed packages, you can see your current version and updated version available.
