postfix (3.1.4-1) unstable; urgency=medium Starting with postfix 3.0, Debian's custom dynamically loadable module support has been replaced with a new upstream implementation. To support this change, some files in /etc/postfix required updates. If prompted during install to accept or reject changes, take care not to reject changes due to the new configuration. Failure to do so may lead to a non-working system. Starting with Debian 9, Codename Stretch, postfix is shipped with a systemd unit file for native systemd integration (the old sysv init script is also provided for non-systemd deployments). Manipulation of Postfix instances using the new unit files is described in README.Debian. -- Scott Kitterman Mon, 02 Jan 2017 14:05:46 -0500 postfix (2.4-20070123-1) experimental; urgency=low As of this version, Debian's postfix defaults to matching upstream behavior (introduced in postfix 2.0) in handling excessively long lines in a message: The Postfix SMTP client now breaks message header or body lines that are longer than $smtp_line_length_limit characters (default: 990). Earlier Postfix versions broke lines at $line_length_limit characters (default: 2048). Postfix versions before 20010611 did not break long lines at all. Reportedly, some mail servers refuse to receive mail with lines that exceed the 1000 character limit that is specified by the SMTP standard. Those wishing the old behavior of never breaking lines should set smtp_line_length_limit=0 in /etc/postfix/main.cf, and be aware that they are not standard conformant. -- LaMont Jones Wed, 24 Jan 2007 07:28:15 -0700
