Because there is no matching entry in master.cf
I was bitten as well (like a few it seems), mine was with spf (guess I
used a bad spf howto when I moved to postfix a few years back)
I had spfpolicy in master.cf - but in main.cf I had
policy_time_limit and NOT spfpolicy_time_limit , like I needed, only a
5 second fix :)
