Zimbra's postfix main.cf file not saving changes after reboot!

[Memnock]

Greetings, I'm running Zimbra on Ubuntu and I what I wanted to do is use BitDefender's antivirus to scan mail instead of clam or whatever it has by default. I edited the Postfix main.cf and master.cf files and marked out the zimbra antivirus and added the lines for the BitDefender antivirus, according to the instructions by BitDefender and reloaded postfix and it worked flawlessly.

However, as soon as I reboot, all of the changes made to the main.cf file concerning the BitDefender antivirus in /opt/zimbra/postfix-2.2.9/conf/ folder are gone and it's back to not working again.

Here is what the main.cf file looks like after I have configured it to use BitDefender before I reboot:

Why is it deleting the BitDefender information after reboot, and how can I make it stop?

Zimbra regenerates main.cf. If you want to persistently change the postfix config, I believe you need to edit /opt/zimbra/conf/zmmta.cf instead and add/change a POSTCONF line.

Thanks for the quick response.

So what you're saying is that in the zmmta.cf the lines that contain the following:

smtp-amavis:[127.0.0.1]:10024

I should change to:

smtp:127.0.0.1:10025

to match the correct BitDefender configuration?

sounds rights, but we may not blow away zmmta.cf on upgrades, so watch out for that.

Thanks, that worked for me. Much appreciated.
