There's a script in the Postfix documentation directory to setup chroot without the special SuSE tricks. /usr/share/doc/packages/postfix/examples/chroot-setup/LINUX2
Thank you, I should have read this before... and it confirms my thoughts.
I can't guess the reasons behind SuSE's implementation of the chroot environment for Postfix, I do know that Postfix's author tells people that chroot isn't an end to all security problems and it can be more trouble than it's worth.

That's clear so far. But after all I did learn a lot from playing with chroot jails and that's real fun :) Ok now, bye Joe
