Greetings,

I've been running an OpenSMTPD server for a while now on an ArchLinux
server and I've noticed some strange behavior. When I reboot the server,
smptd crashes on startup. If I restart the service manually, however, it
starts up just fine and will run without issue until I need to reboot
for whatever reason. Because of this, I'm assuming it has to do with the
way the OS is starting the service rather than an smtpd problem
specifically, but I'm hoping that someone here may know more about the
error codes than I and will be able to point me in the right direction.

#journalctl -u smtpd.service

Any help is appreciated.
