Hello, recently I upgrade my notebook from 16.04 to 17.10.
I'm having a lot of problems in the log, and one of them is related to postfix: Failed to start Postfix Mail Transport Agent (instance -).
~$ sudo systemctl status postfix.service
● postfix.service - Postfix Mail Transport Agent
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/postfix.service; enabled; vendor preset:
Active: inactive (dead)
Condition: start condition failed at Wed 2017-11-29 14:24:19 -02; 2 days ago
└─ ConditionPathExists=/etc/postfix/main.cf was not met
Could someone point me to a fix?
