This is being tested on control-test-opensuse155a

jakerundall commented 3 months ago

The Puppet changes look fine but I was unable to send a test mail using this command:

echo "Subject: sendmail test $HOSTNAME" | sendmail myemail@blah.org

/var/log/maillog contains messages like these:

@jakerundall I figured out the issue with postfix.

Apparently postfix stopped supporting the dictionary type hash and swapped to using lmdb by default instead. I am not really sure if that is true, or more of an issue of how the distros are supporting lmdb vs hash.

RHEL 7-9 releases all support and default to using hash, though RHEL 9 does support lmdb with package postfix-lmdb, but it still defaults to using hash.

SUSE 15.5 seems to only support lmdb.

So for now I have Red Hat using hash and SUSE using lmdb. Long term that is probably not the correct logic, but works for now.
