Package: postfix
Version: 2.4.6-3
Severity: important
>From time to time (nearly to about 'always') any helper app (by which I mean
trivial-rewrite, flush, bounce, cleanup, etc) got killed by signal 6 having
sent previously a bad command startup message. For example, this are the
last messages logged in mail.warn
