I have a weird problem with postfix.the service won't start and i'll get the following error when i use "postconf" command :

postconf: fatal: file /etc/postfix/master.cf: line 141: bad field count

but the line 141 in maste.cf is a commented sentence as follows :
<code>
# define amavis service for postfix
# maxproc column here must match the $max_servers in /etc/amavisd.conf
amavisfeed unix - - n - 4 lmtp
-o lmtp_data_done_timeout=1200
-o lmtp_send_xforward_command=yes
-o disable_dns_lookups=yes
-o max_use=20

# define a service to inject mail back into Postfix
127.0.0.1:10025 inet n - n - - smtpd
-o content_filter=
-o smtpd_delay_reject=no
-o smtpd_client_restrictions=permit_mynetworks,reject
</code>

this is a little bit weird.does anyone have an answer ?
