[CentOS] centos 5.11 and postfix

[Kai Schaetzl]

I made a test update of only Postfix and don't see a problem.
There's indeed a new main.cf file saved as main.cf.rpmnew and there's also 
a new main.cf.default file which contains all default settings of 
postconf.

The data_directory apparently changed from /etc/postfix to 
/var/lib/postfix which affects the SSL relevant file prng_exch. Postfix 
redirects access from old to the new location, maybe you had a problem 
because of this? Selinux? The path is in the new main.cf(.rpmnew), but not 
in my old main.cf file. However, as it is the default it takes effect, 
anyway.

This  confused me a bit first. I assume you just meant to say SASL, no 
Cyrus involved. Same here. No matter, if SSL or not.
