Re: broken upgrade of postfix_2.3.7-3 -> 2.3.8-2 (etch)

Today's postfix update has broken my smtp configuration, and I would
enjoy any help troubleshooting - I have downgraded to 2.3.7-3 for the
moment.  The changelog looks fairly trivial, but I have not been able to
put my finger on the real problem - is this possibly an libssl/openssl
issue?

I am using tls, sasl authentication, and postgrey.  Local delivery for a
logcheck email worked, and postfix bound to the tcp ports, but a telnet
to port 25 showed no banner and accepted no interaction -  same behavior
after a restart.

I enabled verbose logging and there is too much to post here - at the
end of the log is the verbose output of 2.3.7-3 starting up, a telnet to
localhost 25, then a non-verbose restart:

Thanks for any ideas!

Kind Regards,

Can you post the result of postconf -n ? that shows the actual working parameters used by postfix. From the logs I guess (uneducated guess) that the problem is not in the postfix core but in one or more of the child processes (spam/virus checker or greylistng).
