Comment 1 Christopher Meng 2014-01-30 15:48:14 UTC

Could you remove these lines in the service file cumulatively/independently and try again? 

--pidfile=/var/run/postgrey.pid \

--group=postgrey \ --user=postgrey \

I've received many similar bug reports recently, hope you can help and feedback some cases.

Comment 2 Vladislav Grigoryev 2014-01-30 18:39:52 UTC

Removing this one
>  --greylist-text="Greylisted for %%s seconds" \
resolves the issue.

cp -f {/usr/lib,/etc}/systemd/system/postgrey.service
sed -i '/--greylist-text=/d' /etc/systemd/system/postgrey.service
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl start postgrey.service
