Fixing "postscreen_cache.db: No such file or directory"

If I enable postscreen on a Debian-Host I'll get this strange message in my mail.log:


Feb 13 08:38:37 tardis postfix/postscreen[17453]: close database /var/lib/postfix/postscreen_cache.db: No such file or directory (possible Berkeley DB bug)

It looks like the postscreen_cache.db-file is located in /var/lib/postfix instead of the postfix-jail /var/spool/postfix/var/lib/postfix. So we can fix it by moving the file into the jail:

Letsenrypt

Lets Encrypt was lately quite often in the media. Letsencrypt is a very easy to use tool which provides certificates for free. Those certificates are valid on most common browsers. I never understood why certificates are expensive that's why I tried out letsencrypt(and I like it!). In this article, I will replace all cacert-certificates on a kolab-server. Therefore I will install the letsencrypt-certificate on: apache2, cyrus-imapd and postfix.

If you have installed Kolab 3.2 on Debian Jessie and if you are using SSL, you might have problems with sieve-filters. If I click on Filters(in webmail), I'll recieve the following error: "Unable to connect to server". /var/log/mail.log shows me:
