Re: Postfix-Policyd start problem

You should at least tell us some basic info about your iRedMail server:

==== Required information ====
- iRedMail version:
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL):
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version:
- Related log if you're reporting an issue:
====

If you use 'localhost' as mysql server address, it will try to connect to MySQL server via local socket file. If you use '127.0.0.1', it will connect via IP network instead of local socket file.
