Unusual log items for Postfix

Hi again,
In trying to find out why my previously happy Postfix server under iTools had developed a couple of odd log errors, I posted to the Postfix list & also did some searching after someone pointed out where the problem is.
The problem is that in system.log, these errors began appearing:


Jul 1 23:19:16 server launchd: org.postfix.master: exited with exit code: 1
Jul 1 23:19:16 server launchd: org.postfix.master: 4 more failures without living at least 60 seconds will cause job removal


The reason is that with OSX 10.4, Apple have changed the way Postfix starts, using a thing called launchd - The launch daemon is located at:

/System/Library/LaunchDaemon/org.postfix.master.plist

To fix these errors, I moved that item to another place & inserted a new traditional startup item, plus inserted MAILSERVER=-YES- into /etc/hostconfig

I then rebooted to make sure Postfix was working without any errors.

For those not confident in doing this without some assistance, this link:

        Gives you some hints & guides you. hope this helps.
