Description

I get this error in maillog:

Feb 12 14:48:51 hostname postfix/master[26572]: warning: process /usr/local/libexec/postfix/postscreen pid 60794 exit status 1
Feb 12 14:48:51 hostname postfix/master[26572]: warning: /usr/local/libexec/postfix/postscreen: bad command startup -- throttling

Feb 12 14:49:35 hostname postfix/master[26572]: warning: /usr/local/libexec/postfix/qmgr: bad command startup -- throttling

I was unable to locate the problem. I tried to re-install postfix or other attempts unless I call postqueue:

postqueue -p

postqueue will output errors about missing shared libraries: libsasl2.so.2, libspf2.so.2.

I fixed it as following via shell:
  1. enable pkg by:
    pkg
  2. install missing libs:
    pkg install cyrus-sasl
pkg install libspf2

Just want to report here because it may helpful to others and hope it will be fixed for next releases.

Thanks.

This is confirmed. Many people affected. Most had to revert to 2.1.5 Details this thread:

This should be updated to Version 2.2.x
and the package should either be removed from the packages list are marked as broken

As there are no package maintainer for POSTFIX.
Don't expect any fix soon.

This didn't help me - I also had to do a

pkg install Postfix

and everything burst into life.

Please, test with v2.4.5 after undoing whatever manual hacks you did there (like symlinks and/or installing packages via pkg).
