Comment 1 Thomas Woerner 2004-10-19 08:28:33 UTC

I can not reproduce this, installing postfix after removing the
postfix user and postdrop group works without any problems for me.
Can you please verify and debug the post-install of postfix?

Comment 2 Andrew Cagney 2004-10-20 15:42:57 UTC

Unfortunatly this occured with a scratch FC3test2 install.  The
chances of me performing another scratch to debug this are low :-(.

For reference, it was postfix-2.1.5-2.1

Comment 3 Thomas Woerner 2005-03-18 13:52:10 UTC

I can not reproduce this problem at all. It does not happen for me with the old
and newer versions. Closing as NOT A BUG.
