I did a while ago in two postings:
smtps inet n - n - - smtpd
Which, as I pointed out, isn't the problem line. It's just preventing
the problem from appearing if you comment this out b/c you don't
attempt to try and run smtps.
in Apple's default master.cf kils the server if it is uncommented.
smtp inet n - n - - smtpd
is now required by postfix or the Server Admin GUI will not let one
set Incoming SMTP.
No, it's not. False premise leads to wrong conclusion.
This MIGHT be a problem with Apple's GUI.
But it's not.
it was not a problem in 10.5.2, when I used the file to have postfix
respond on port 125.
Again, false premises.
And he could fix his problem by restoring this file from a known
good backup.
I cannot, because I have tested the backup and it will not work for
the reasons above. I have done the line-by-line comparison.
Then that was not a good backup.
