Package: postfix
Version: 2.2.10-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

after installing a new etch and replacing exim with postfix postfix
does not start because it does not know the options passed in
/etc/init.d/postfix:

quiet-quick-start
quiet-stop
quiet-reload

postfix fails with:

postfix/postfix-script: fatal: usage: postfix start (or stop, \
reload, abort, flush, check, set-permissions, upgrade-configuration)

Patch attached but does not suppress any messages.

Same happens with the unstable version.

These options has never been understood by standard initscripts.
The standard options are start/stop/restart/status.  What you're
listing above are non-standard, so there's no reason they should
be supported.  And postfix correctly fails seeing an unsupported
option.

Maybe exim initscript implemented those non-standard options and
it was handy.  But postfix does not implement them.

Closing this bug report.  Please feel free to reopen it if you
think it is incorrect.

Thanks,
