What version of Virtualmin are you using again?
And what happens if you try to manually launch it from the command lne:
/etc/init,d/postgrey start
There was a bug in older Virtualmin versions that you'd have to manually start Postgrey. -Eric
i've 3.69 gpl. but now is working postgrey, even if there was that error.
For some reason that we do not understand, apt-get sometimes returns a false value, even when everything seems to have installed successfully. I don't like it, but I don't know what to do about it.
