Well, got the logs working again.
I maybe kind of had not considered I had to reset the permissions properly.
I at least get this much... This is what occurs when outside e-mail tries to come in.
Thing is, I have no idea what to do about it lol

I checked the 10-master.conf for dovecot, and the location and file it points to in the config Does exist..
I wonder what I broke..

~# telnet localhost smtp
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.nonetforyou.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
421 4.3.2 All server ports are busy
Connection closed by foreign host.

Tried telnet for the laughs. I don't like the punchline. lol

Any ideas out there?

Thanks,
Dave

VICTORY! VICTORY!

smtpd pass - - - - - smtpd

This line needs to be un-commented out of postfix's master.cf
It was that stupidly simple lol
