I'm seeing some postfix errors on a 10.6.8 client.  I can't think of any
legitimate reasons why this is even running.  Any ideas? The only mail
related app or process that should be running that I can think of is just
MS Outlook 2011.

remotelogin/ssh is enabled but locked down with hosts.allow and
sshd_config.

I do see a file here but think this is normal:
/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.postfix.master.plist


Thanks,
