Hello atif. The terminal shows this as the full error message:
Starting amavisd: head: cannot open `/etc/mailname' for reading: No such file
or directory
The value of variable $myhostname is "atifalhazmi-CX500DX", but should have
been
a fully qualified domain name; perhaps uname(3) did not provide such.
You must explicitly assign a FQDN of this host to variable $myhostname
in /etc/amavis/conf.d/05-node_id, or fix what uname(3) provides as a host's
network name!
(failed).
invoke-rc.d: initscript amavis, action "restart" failed.
It seems your network is not giving your machine a fully qualified
domain name, and you have not configured the system's mailname
parameter.
I would suggest running
sudo dpkg-reconfigure postfix
Which should set /etc/mailname if you give your system one, then to
finish amavisd's configuration:
sudo dpkg --configure -a
Please report back here if that fixes your problem. Marking Incomplete
pending response.
