Virtualmin Postfix Error

Yesterday the mail was running smoothly no problem at all. I added some RBL spamcop sorbs and other stuff just like that also edited spamassasin rules. then logged out.

My Boss wake me that the mail was not working !!! DANG So I hurried to check. Tail the log
$tail -f /var/log/maillog

!!!! IT WAS BLOCKING 127.0.0.1 local himself
I checked whats the problem then i disabled ( commented out amavis in posftfix configuration )
The 127.0.0.1 blocking is gone BUT! i cannot recive mails damn! it says "unknown user in virtual table"
I checked maybe it got hacked but no there's the user can login and send mails
Hmm proceed to re load old main.cf configuration that working maybe i deleted something. But no still same
Check Again
Then I tried stoping amavisd IT CANT BE STOPPED some pid "eh" i look again close it says its not running!
I started amavisd and whoa all worked again.

Problem boss asked "where are the mails yesterday" usually it bounces back if it can't contact the server but as boss said nothing bounced so I looked at the postfix queue ha there they are I begin to flush the bastards out !

Lesson Learned ( Nothing ) weird stuff happen I have a monitoring tool and checked before I leave "bad hair day"
