kolab 2.3.4 openpkg - amavisd not functioning

Fri May 25 15:46:59 CEST 2012

Hi,
since I'm not sure which lang this forum prefers - Does it prefer one
specific? - I'll send this message one more time in English.

I'm running a Kolab Openpkg Version 2.3.4 Server on debian 6 stable. I'm
able to send emails to it using Thunderbird via imap, the mails end up
on the server but are not being further transported to the addressee.

In the file postfix.log, right after sending a mail, the following is shown:

May 25 12:42:18 mail-airwerk <info> postfix/smtp[3003]: 510121658F4:
to=<dwerner at curiousbits.de>, relay=none, delay=176327,
delays=176327/0.18/0/0, dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred (connect to
127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:10024: Connection refused)

So I tested if amavisd is running - ps aux | grep amavis shows nothing!
I started amavisd manually using /kolab/bin/openpkg rc amavisd start -
ps aux | grep amavis still shows nothing, there's also nothing about
amavisd in syslog. The log level of kolab is set to 4, debug is 1, also
the log level of amavisd is set to 5.

A telnet 127.0.0.1 10024 shows:

Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused.

netstat -n -l -p shows:

There are also some warnings in postfix.log

I know this is not looking nice, could this be connected to my problem?
I don't want to just change various file rights and owner settings
before someone has'nt recommended this. Do the files below
/kolab/etc/postfix/ have to belong to root? Also the dir pid below
/kolab/var/postfix?

File amavisd.log shows despite log_level = 5 only the following :

May 25 12:10:12 mail-airwerk /kolab/sbin/amavisd[14031]: starting. 
/kolab/sbin/amavisd at mail-airwerk amavisd-new-2.5.3 (20071212),

May 25 12:10:12 mail-airwerk /kolab/sbin/amavisd[14031]: Perl
version               5.010000

I just restarted the machine, right after it has come up, ps aux | grep
amavisd shows:*
*
kolab     2939  0.0  0.0   4972  1412 ?        S    12:46   0:00 smtp -n
smtp-amavis -t unix -u -o smtp_data_done_timeout=1200 -o
smtp_send_xforward_command=yes -o disable_dns_lookups=yes

A minute later, without any user action ps aux | grep amavis shows nothing.

I'm stuck and appreciate any kind of hint very much.

Best regards and a nice Whitsun weekend!
