open /etc/postfix/main.cf

Does this file exist? What are the permissions if so?

Re: mail postfix/smtpd[6879]: warning

The file existed.

I ran and restruck the password for db

mysqladmin =u root password <original password>

restored settings.py to original (I had fussed with turning off greylisting)

and restarted dovecot and iredapd and it is now sending and receiving messages.

It seems to be in working order, with a few benign log errors.

I get this on boot up:

Sep  2 06:12:26 mail /etc/mysql/debian-start[1479]: Version check failed. Got the following error when calling the 'mysql' command line client
Sep  2 06:12:26 mail /etc/mysql/debian-start[1479]: FATAL ERROR: Upgrade failed

Resolved by restoring settings.py and redoing mysql password.

Please close as resolved.
