Continuing the discussion from Self-hosted mail-receiver update following Let's Encrypt root certificate change : After updating mail-receiver to latest ./launcher logs mail-receiver errors out after postfix/postfix-script: warning: symlink leaves directory: /etc/postfix/./makedefs.out <20>Oct 1 0…

Thanks @md-misko - I’ve merged the PR and bumped the discourse/mail-reciever:release tag on Dockerhub. I’m sure you’re already aware, but in case anyone else comes across this topic, you can update your mail receiver version by running: docker pull discourse/mail-receiver:release cd /var/discourse…

have you tried these steps [image] Let's Encrypt X3 nightmare support Can you try docker pull discourse/mail-receiver:release cd /var/discourse ./launcher rebuild mail-receiver

I do see the same errors warnings but Postfix is happily running and accepting mails after that. Sometimes the logs don’t seem to flush immediately so you might need to wait for a while before you get some output. But that’s unrelated to the warnings. So is it actually crashing for you?

I believe I figured this one out, there is a maillog_file line missing in the Dockerfile. Temp fix: added POSTCONF_maillog_file: '/dev/stdout' to mail-receiver.yml and rebuilt, but this should probably be fixed in the docker image Dockerfile main FROM debian:bookworm-slim A…

[image] md-misko: I believe I figured this one out, there is a maillog_file line missing in the Dockerfile So after adding this, the error is gone, and the logs are working? If so, would you mind submitting a PR to make that change?

Have you got any ideas of how to test that the current running image is running the latest version?

A little convoluted… but I think this should work: # First, make sure you've got the latest base image locally docker pull discourse/mail-receiver:release # Get the top layer of the base image BASE_IMAGE_HASH=$(docker history discourse/mail-receiver:release -q | head -n 1) # Get the layers of the…
