Postfix is dying on one of my servers almost nightly. This system is running CentOS5 with postfix-2.3.3-2.
In the morning (after noticing it died) I try to run `service postfix stop` and I get a failed start. Running `ps ax | grep postfix` I can see one process still running for postfix. After killing this, I am able to run `service postfix start`.
Which process is it? smtpd? master?
Master
Do you sometimes find anvil missing? I wonder if you can strace master and see what it is doing or waiting for...
