Postfix Release 20010228 Patchlevel 01 includes patches that were
sent to the list in the last month, some portability enhancements,
and updated documentation.
- The flush daemon complained when Postfix was deferring mail
for user@[ip.address], and aborted with a panic when deferring
mail to user@a.domain.name (one-letter subdomain name).
- The LMTP connection caching did not work for destinations that
start with inet: or unix:.
- The cleanup server stalled when mail exceeded the queue file
size limit by a small amount. The sender was not informed of
the file size problem and kept sending the mail repeatedly.
- Mail address headers with newline inside (comment) caused
Postfix to emit a backslash before the end of line.

Postfix official release 19991231 patchlevel 11 is available.
This release folds in code changes from recent snapshot releases.
These changes track changes in RedHat Linux, fix two minor bugs in
the Postfix queue manager scheduling behavior that were spotted by
Patrik Rak, and turn off one misfeature.
- On RedHat Linux 7.0, you must install the db3-devel RPM before
you can compile the Postfix source code.
- The queue manager could schedule too many connections to the same
destination (domain name spelled in upper and lower case).
- The queue manager could schedule too few connections to the same
destination (back off even in case of successful delivery).
- The confusing site_hog_factor feature is disabled by default. It
caused unnecessary mail delivery delays on inbound mail gateways.
