These lines do not only contain the error-message, but also the hint what's wrong: in the file "/etc/postfix/main.cf" the parameter "setgid_group" is not set to a known ( in "/etc/groups") name. Standard would be "setgid_group = maildrop" . Just what has happend to kill your config, that is beyond this diagnose. - Yamaban. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
