Paul -
Many thanks for getting back. I appreciate your help on a Sunday. This connection problem is weird, as we had gotten past it before. Have been re-reviewing all the bits and pieces, right down to the PG connection authorizations. Your message has led me to test ALL of the dbmail-lmtpd startup parameters, and this is interesting: Starting it with: # /usr/local/sbin/dbmail-lmtpd Sends some normal looking output to the log, with no other messages. But is it running? No process visible in # ps -A, for example. However, starting it with: # /usr/local/sbin/dbmail-lmtpd -D .... same good-looking log output, then: Segmentation Fault (core dumped) So, clearly something's up! Perhaps time to git pull and do another build? Side Issues; later: Since that email, I have enabled: LMTP-before-SMTP, as the dbmail.err log was reporting this was not set up. Important? Earlier, when it seemed we _were_ connecting OK, I was seeing an error like fatal: virtual_mailbox_base < 1. (true, because I have nothing set in this variable). Problem? Again, many thanks for your help....

Is it listening on 127.0.0.1:24? telnet localhost 24 should give you something like Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. 220 mail DBMail LMTP service ready to rock Until you fix these, there's no point in testing postfix. The query you mention is only relevant for a postfix table lookup. It's not generated by lmtpd.
