From my log:
Code:
root@legolas puggy # cat /var/log/mail/current | grep new
Jul 23 17:13:18 [postfix/smtpd] unable to get private key from '/etc/postfix/newreq.pem'

Permissions on newreq.pem:
Code:
root@legolas puggy # ls -all /etc/postfix/newreq.pem
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         1659 Jun 12 22:38 /etc/postfix/newreq.pem

Blanked out contents of newreq.pem:
Code:
root@legolas puggy # cat /etc/postfix/newreq.pem
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
Proc-Type: 4,ENCRYPTED
DEK-Info: <Blanked>

<Large block blanked>
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
<Large block blanked>
-----END CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----


Anyone have any idea what this is about? I can't understand it.

UPDATE
---------

2 things were the solution:

1. new postfix has a unique_name variable that wasn't set yet.
2. had to delete the demoCA directory.
