as far as I see from the log, postfix is correctly running.

Sure, see comment #6

Attach the log when things are not working, please.

I fear this won't be possible any more :-/ The actual 'bug' is described in comments #3 and #4. However, I won't be able to reproduce it again. So closing as wontfix for now. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
