I'm not so much worried about the noise in my logs (I can just turn it off, which has also been pointed out to me a few times already). There's already a number of other daily periodic options postfix has you turn off, so that's a non-issue for me. And I'd fully accept the fact that, since I replaced a base-system daemon with a ports daemon, I'm the one who should be responsible for turning those off. I was just concerned that some useful task that used to occur nightly may now not be occurring, and if so, what I could do to make it occur again. I didn't see anything to even indicate that postfix has a host status cache, meaning the option is pretty pointless either way. I was just wondering if anyone who had run postfix longer than me knew for sure :) --Mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
