Hi Wietse, I am running OS X (10.6.2) but beyond that I don't know what security software might interfere as Apple hides a lot from the admin. However, as I stated in an earlier reply, TLS seems to be working without that parameter. The only thing that gives me pause, is that I get this warning in the log for incoming TLS connections:
postfix/tlsmgr[67966]: warning: no entropy source specified with parameter tls_random_source I don't know if that is something I need to worry about or not.
