Hi,

Well, besides the patch I sent, the only missing part in selinux policy
is something to fix this :

type=AVC msg=audit(1375791086.840:4461): avc:  denied  { sys_chroot }
for  pid=23706 comm="pickup" capability=18
scontext=system_u:system_r:postfix_pickup_t:s0
tcontext=system_u:system_r:postfix_pickup_t:s0 tclass=capability

So i think integrating my patch would help to work toward a fix. There
is no reason to apply this only on redhat based distribution, so the
patch seems harmless to enable in unstable.
