postfix crash ... setup new ?

[jaja55]

Hi,
I spend days configuring postfix at my system. I use 3 different providers without success.
The result was, a total crash of the UI (because I try to remove postfix)
and after fix that, I still spamming myself without outgoing mail

Now I delete the content of main.cf and reboot. The spamming is now gone.
But if I look for the processes there is still something wrong!

root@PVE1:~# ps aux|grep postfix
root        1050  0.0  0.0  42656  2668 ?        Ss   19:03   0:00 /usr/lib/postfix/sbin/master -w
postfix     1051  0.0  0.0  43036  5760 ?        S    19:03   0:00 pickup -l -t unix -u -c
postfix     1052  0.0  0.0  43084  5888 ?        S    19:03   0:00 qmgr -l -t unix -u
100000      2379  0.0  0.0  42656  2584 ?        Ss   19:03   0:00 /usr/lib/postfix/sbin/master -w
100000      2408  0.0  0.0  40052  3100 ?        Ss   19:03   0:00 /usr/lib/postfix/sbin/master -w
100000      2495  0.0  0.0  40052  2972 ?        Ss   19:04   0:00 /usr/lib/postfix/sbin/master -w
root        3131  0.0  0.0   6332  2048 pts/0    S+   19:05   0:00 grep postfix

I can kill all the 100000 stuff, but after a reboot they come back.
How can I fix that ?
I would like to reset all the postfix staff without crashing the system again.
Thx for help !

Is this maybe related to Proxmox VE and not the Proxmox Mail Gateway?

the user-id 100000 corresponds to the root-user in an unprivileged container - I guess you have containers running where postfix is configured

I hope this helps!
