Comment 6 for bug 634839

Hi firebird,

I won't speak for Chuck, but I will agree with his decision to close the bug report.

The reason is, there's no pattern identified in the report that suggests a normal situation or a repeatable test case. When you say you tinkered and aren't sure, this makes it really hard for us to repeat the issue or identify what should be changed.

Its not clear at all whether the file /etc/aliases was there, or not, and what exactly failed.

If you can maybe boot up a vm or a spare server with a clean install, and recreate the situation (possibly by removing /etc/aliases before installing postfix?), and post it here, then you are welcome to re-open the report (change Status back to New) and we'll take another look.
