hi folks,

after various problems with postfix & mailman thought I'd got
everything set up properly (mailman works, mail gets delivered...);
but today the server slowed to a halt & syslog filled with error
messages like this one (seen aferter /etc/init.d/postfix restart):

Jan 13 21:57:42 localhost postfix/master[7924]: warning:
/usr/lib/postfix/pipe: bad command startup -- throttling
Jan 13 21:58:04 localhost postfix/master[7924]: terminating on signal
15
Jan 13 21:58:04 localhost postfix/master[20012]: daemon started --
version 2.2.4, configuration /etc/postfix
Jan 13 21:58:04 localhost postfix/qmgr[20016]: A0E7B7F741:

active)

Jan 13 21:58:05 localhost postfix/master[20012]: warning:

--------------
Anyone know what this means, and in which config files I should look?
I've modified conf files for postfix & mailman as per
/usr/lib/mailman/bin/postfix-to-mailman.py .  Happy to provide more
info, just don't want to spam the list with all the modified files.

thanmks,

matt
