--- Begin Message ---Package: postfix Version: 3.1.6-0+deb9u1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, yesterday I did an upgrade from Debian Stretch 9.1 to 9.2. Postfix was updated. During the update, no error accured. After a reboot, "systemctl status postfix" showed this: ● postfix.service - Postfix Mail Transport Agent Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/postfix.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: active (exited) since Sun 2017-10-08 12:10:45 CEST; 2min 7s ago Process: 485 ExecReload=/bin/true (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Process: 447 ExecStart=/bin/true (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 447 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Tasks: 0 (limit: 4915) Memory: 0B CPU: 0 CGroup: /system.slice/postfix.service When I did "netstat -tulpn" no postfix processed were bound to any IP addresses and htop showed me not a single postfix process. The error log /var/log/mail.log was not touched. "systemctl restart postfix" changed nothing, postfix was dead. Only "apt-get install --reinstall postfix" helped. After re-installing postfix, everything was working again. I could reproduce this problem on 4 of my hosts. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.2 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages postfix depends on: ii adduser 3.115 ii cpio 2.11+dfsg-6 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.61 ii dpkg 1.18.24 ii init-system-helpers 1.48 ii libc6 2.24-11+deb9u1 ii libdb5.3 5.3.28-12+deb9u1 ii libicu57 57.1-6 ii libsasl2-2 2.1.27~101-g0780600+dfsg-3 ii libssl1.1 1.1.0f-3 ii lsb-base 9.20161125 ii netbase 5.4 ii postfix-sqlite 3.1.6-0+deb9u1 ii ssl-cert 1.0.39 Versions of packages postfix recommends: ii python3 3.5.3-1 Versions of packages postfix suggests: ii dovecot-core [dovecot-common] 1:2.2.27-3+deb9u1 ii libsasl2-modules 2.1.27~101-g0780600+dfsg-3 ii mailutils [mail-reader] 1:3.1.1-1 pn postfix-cdb <none> pn postfix-doc <none> pn postfix-ldap <none> pn postfix-lmdb <none> ii postfix-mysql 3.1.6-0+deb9u1 pn postfix-pcre <none> pn postfix-pgsql <none> pn procmail <none> ii resolvconf 1.79 pn sasl2-bin <none> pn ufw <none> -- debconf information: postfix/rfc1035_violation: false * postfix/main_mailer_type: No configuration postfix/not_configured: postfix/dynamicmaps_conversion_warning: postfix/relayhost: postfix/chattr: false postfix/mailname: /etc/mailname postfix/compat_conversion_warning: true postfix/lmtp_retired_warning: true postfix/root_address: postfix/retry_upgrade_warning: postfix/procmail: postfix/sqlite_warning: postfix/mydomain_warning: postfix/kernel_version_warning: postfix/destinations: postfix/bad_recipient_delimiter: postfix/relay_restrictions_warning: postfix/mynetworks: 127.0.0.0/8 [::ffff:127.0.0.0]/104 [::1]/128 postfix/mailbox_limit: 0 postfix/protocols: postfix/recipient_delim: + postfix/main_cf_conversion_warning: true postfix/tlsmgr_upgrade_warning:

It turned out 9.4 didn't have a complete fix, but last weekend's point release does, so this should be fixed now. If the problem continues, please file a new bug. Scott K
