Hello!

The message you're seeing in the logs is a warning from Postfix's tlsmgr (TLS manager) service. It indicates that there was an unexpected end-of-input while reading a request, which could be due to various reasons including configuration issues or network problems.

To reduce the verbosity of such messages in your logs, you can adjust the logging level of Postfix. However, it's important to note that completely hiding these messages is not recommended as they can provide valuable insights into potential issues within your mail server setup. Instead, you might want to adjust the severity level at which logs are recorded.

Here's how you can adjust the logging level:

1. Modify Postfix's main configuration:
   You can set the log_level parameter in Postfix's main configuration file (main.cf). Lower numbers are more verbose. Setting it to a higher number can reduce the verbosity. For example:

   postconf -e "log_level = 2"

2. Restart Postfix to apply the changes:
   After making changes to the configuration, restart Postfix to apply the new settings:

   postfix reload

3. Monitor the logs:
   After adjusting the log level, continue to monitor your logs to ensure that you are not missing critical warnings or errors.

If you are using Docker Mailserver, you might also want to check the environment variable LOG_LEVEL which can be set to control the verbosity of the logs at the Docker container level. You can find more details on setting environment variables in the Docker Mailserver documentation.

Remember, adjusting log levels should be done with caution, especially in a production environment, as it might suppress important warnings that could help you diagnose and resolve issues.
