First, I can reproduce this on Wheezy; second, the problem might run deeper...

I'm running Postgrey on two Debian servers: one is Squeeze, the other is still 
running Wheezy.


On Wheezy, I get the same error when running `service postgrey reload`. On 
Squeeze, it works fine.


ALSO: I can't get postgrey to notice changes to /etc/postgrey/whitelist_clients 
on Wheezy.

On Squeeze, when I make a change to /etc/postgrey/whitelist_clients, it takes 
effect after I run
`service postgrey reload`. On Wheezy, since `service postgrey reload` fails, 
I've tried running
`service postgrey restart` instead -- which outputs that it has succeeded, but 
doesn't actually
reload my changes to /etc/postgrey/whitelist_clients. (I've tried `service 
postgrey stop` and
`service postgrey start` as well.)

I'm not sure whether the issue with /etc/postgrey/whitelist_clients is 
related... but I'm only
having it on Wheezy, where reload fails, whereas on Squeeze, where the reload 
is fine, pPostgrey
notices changes to /etc/postgrey/whitelist_clients as expected.


I'm not sure that start/stop actually does anything.

On that same Wheezy server...

root@anaximander:~# ps aux | grep postgrey

root      9306  0.0  0.0   7836   876 pts/0    S+   13:15   0:00 grep postgrey



I don't know enough to confirm this... but my theory is that the 
start/stop/restart services
aren't working properly either on Wheezy, even though they don't say failed 
like the reload does,
which would explain why start/stop/restart has no effect on Postgrey reloading 
my
whitelist_clients file either.
