It's been my experience that if there's a problem accessing a file,
Postfix would say so! Just to be sure, I changed permissions to 644
matching the other db files.
Delivery is still being deferred. I think it's related to saslfinger
not being able to talk to Comcast- shouldn't it display the AUTH LOGIN
PLAIN CRAM-MD5 response that I saw in my telnet session?
