Question

How to enable Postfix debug mode?

Answer

Login to the server over SSH
Execute the following (specifying the required IP addresses and domain names to monitor instead '203.0.113.2' and 'example.com'):

# postconf debug_peer_level=4

# postconf debug_peer_list=203.0.113.2,example.com

Note: No spaces between values in debug_peer_list are allowed.

To disable debug, run:

# postconf debug_peer_list=""

OR

Edit the /etc/postfix/master.cf config file, add -v right after "smtpd" in the file, like the following:

CONFIG_TEXT: smtp inet n - n - - smtpd -v
Apply the new settings:

# service postfix restart
