+Replacements for Deprecated Features</h1>
+
+<hr>
+
+<h2>Purpose of this document </h2>
+
+<p> This document describes Postfix features that are deprecated
+(will be removed) or that have already been removed. It also has
+tips for making an existing Postfix configuration more future-proof.
+</p>
+
+<p> Overview: </p>
+
+<ul>
+
+<li> <a href="#why"> Why deprecate? </a>
+
+<li> <a href="#process"> Deprecation process </a>
+
+<li> <a href="#features"> Deprecated features </a>
+
+</ul>
+
+<h2> <a name="why"> Why deprecate? </a> </h2>
+
+<p> Sometimes, a Postfix feature needs to be replaced with a different
+one. To give an example: </p>
+
+<ul>
+
+<li> <p> The initial Postfix TLS implementation used multiple boolean
+parameters: one parameter to enable opportunistic TLS (for example,
+"smtp_enforce_tls = yes") and one parameter to enable mandatory TLS
+(for example, "smtp_require_tls = yes"). </p>
+
+<li> <p> As we added support more features such as fingerprint,
+dane, and so on, we decided not to add more boolean parameters.
+Instead we introduced one configuration parameter to select from
+multiple deployment models (for example, smtp_tls_security_level =
+may | encrypt | dane, etc...). </p>
+
+</ul>
+
+<!--
+
+<p> Over time it has become clear that 'level' is too rigid, so this may
+have to change again. Wietse and Viktor have been discussing a way to
+specify a range with minimum properties that are required (e.g., encrypt)
+and nice-to-have properties if they are available (dane or mta-sts). </p>
+
+-->
+
+<p> Having both the "old" and "new" way to configure Postfix is
+convenient for existing Postfix installations, because their
+configuration does not break after an upgrade to a new version.
+Unfortunately, there are also disadvantages. Having multiple ways
+to do similar things is not only confusing for newcomers, it also
+makes Postfix harder to change. </p>

+
+<li> <p> Remove the feature, and update logging and documentation. </p>

+<h2>MongoDB Support in Postfix</h2>
+
+<p> Postfix can use MongoDB as a source for any of its lookups:
+aliases(5), virtual(5), canonical(5), etc. This allows you to keep
+information for your mail service in a replicated noSQL database
+with fine-grained access controls. By not storing it locally on the
+mail server, the administrators can maintain it from anywhere, and
+the users can control whatever bits of it you think appropriate.
+You can have multiple mail servers using the same information,
+without the hassle and delay of having to copy it to each. </p>
+
+<p> Topics covered in this document:</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li><a href="#build">Building Postfix with MongoDB support</a>
+<li><a href="#config">Configuring MongoDB lookups</a>
+<li><a href="#example_virtual">Example: virtual alias maps</a>

+</ul>
+
+<h2><a name="build">Building Postfix with MongoDB support</a></h2>
+
+<p>These instructions assume that you build Postfix from source
+code as described in the INSTALL document. Some modification may
+be required if you build Postfix from a vendor-specific source
+package. </p>
+
+<p>The Postfix MongoDB client requires the <b>mongo-c-driver</b>
+library. This can be built from source code from <a
+href="https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-c-driver/releases">the
+mongod-c project</a>, or this can be installed as a binary package
+from your OS distribution, typically named <b>mongo-c-driver</b>,
+<b>mongo-c-driver-devel</b> or <b>libmongoc-dev</b>.
+Installing the mongo-c-driver library may also install <b>libbson</b>
+as a dependency. </p>
+
+<p> To build Postfix with mongodb map support, add to the CCARGS
+environment variable the options -DHAS_MONGODB and -I for the
+directory containing the mongodb headers, and specify the AUXLIBS_MONGODB
+with the libmongoc and libbson libraries, for example:</p>
+
+<blockquote>
+<pre>
+% make tidy
+% make -f Makefile.init makefiles \
+ CCARGS="$CCARGS -DHAS_MONGODB -I/usr/include/libmongoc-1.0 \
+ -I/usr/include/libbson-1.0" \
+ AUXLIBS_MONGODB="-lmongoc-1.0 -lbson-1.0"
+</pre>
+</blockquote>
+
+<p>The 'make tidy' command is needed only if you have previously
+built Postfix without MongoDB support. </p>
+
+<p>If your MongoDB shared library is in a directory that the RUN-TIME
+linker does not know about, add a "-Wl,-R,/path/to/directory" option
+after "-lbson-1.0". Then, just run 'make'.</p>
+
+<h2><a name="config">Configuring MongoDB lookups</a></h2>
+
+<p> In order to use MongoDB lookups, define a MongoDB source as a
+table lookup in main.cf, for example: </p>
+
+<blockquote>
+<pre>
+alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases, proxy:mongodb:/etc/postfix/mongo-aliases.cf
+</pre>
+</blockquote>
+
+<p> The file /etc/postfix/mongo-aliases.cf can specify a number of
+parameters. For a complete description, see the mongodb_table(5)
+manual page. </p>
+
+<h2><a name="example_virtual">Example: virtual(5) alias maps</a></h2>
+
+<p> Here's a basic example for using MongoDB to look up virtual(5)
+aliases. Assume that in main.cf, you have: </p>
+
+<blockquote>
+<pre>
+virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual_aliases,
+ proxy:mongodb:/etc/postfix/mongo-virtual-aliases.cf
+</pre>
+</blockquote>
+
+<p> and in mongodb:/etc/postfix/mongo-virtual-aliases.cf you have: </p>
+
+<blockquote>
+<pre>
+uri = mongodb+srv://user_name:password@some_server
+dbname = mail
+collection = mailbox
+query_filter = {"$or": [{"username":"%s"}, {"alias.address": "%s"}], "active": 1}
+result_attribute = username
+</pre>
+</blockquote>
+
+<p>This example assumes mailbox names are stored in a MongoDB backend,
+in a format like:</p>
+
+<blockquote>
+<pre>
+{ "username": "user@example.com",
+ "alias": [
+ {"address": "admin@example.com"},
+ {"address": "abuse@example.com"}
+ ],
+ "active": 1
+}
+</pre>
+</blockquote>
+
+<p>Upon receiving mail for "admin@example.com" that isn't found in the
+/etc/postfix/virtual_aliases database, Postfix will search the
+MongoDB server/cluster listening at port 27017 on some_server. It
+will connect using the provided credentials, and search for any
+entries whose username is, or alias field has "admin@example.com".
+It will return the username attribute of those found, and build a
+list of their email addresses. </p>
+
+<p> Notes: </p>
+
+<ul>
+
+<li><p> As with <b>projection</b> (see below), the Postfix mongodb
+client automatically removes the top-level '_id' field from a
+result_attribute result. </p> </li>
+
+<li><p> The Postfix mongodb client will only parse result fields
+with data types UTF8, INT32, INT64 and ARRAY. Other fields will be
+ignored, with a warning in the logs. </p> </li>
+
+</ul>
+
+<h2><a name="example_mailing_list">Example: Mailing lists</a></h2>
+
+<p>When it comes to mailing lists, one way of implementing one would
+be as below:</p>
+
+<blockquote>
+<pre>
+{ "name": "dev@example.com", "active": 1, "address":
+ [ "hamid@example.com", "wietse@example.com", "viktor@example.com" ] }
+</pre>
+</blockquote>
+
+<p>using the filter below, will result in a comma separated string
+with all email addresses in this list. </p>
+
+<blockquote>
+<pre>
+query_filter = {"name": "%s", "active": 1}
+result_attribute = address
+</pre>
+</blockquote>
+
+<p> Notes: </p>
+
+<ul>
+
+<li><p> As with <b>projection</b> (see below), the Postfix mongodb
+client automatically removes the top-level '_id' field from a
+result_attribute result. </p> </li>
+
+<li><p> The Postfix mongodb client will only parse result fields
+with data types UTF8, INT32, INT64 and ARRAY. Other fields will be
+ignored, with a warning in the logs. </p> </li>
+
+</ul>
+
+<h2><a name="example_projections">Example: advanced projections</a></h2>
+
+<p>This module also supports the use of more complex MongoDB
+projections. There may be some use cases where operations such as
+concatenation are necessary to be performed on the data retrieved
+from the database. Although it is encouraged to keep the database
+design simple enough so this is not necessary, postfix supports the
+use of MongoDB projections to achieve the goal. </p>
+
+<p>Consider the example below:</p>
+
+<blockquote>
+<pre>
+{ "username": "user@example.com",
+ "local_part": "user",
+ "domain": "example.com",
+ "alias": [
+ {"address": "admin@example.com"},
+ {"address": "abuse@example.com"}
+ ],
+ "active": 1
+}
+</pre>
+</blockquote>
+
+<p>virtual_mailbox_maps can be created using below parameters in a
+mongodb:/etc/postfix/mongo-virtual-mailboxes.cf file:</p>
+
+<blockquote>
+<pre>
+uri = mongodb+srv://user_name:password@some_server
+dbname = mail
+collection = mailbox
+query_filter = {"$or": [{"username":"%s"}, {"alias.address": "%s"}], "active": 1}
+projection = { "mail_path": {"$concat": ["$domain", "/", "$local_part"]} }
+</pre>
+</blockquote>
+
+<p>This will return 'example.com/user' path built from the database fields. </p>
+
+<p>A couple of considerations when using projections:</p>
+
+<ul>
+
+<li><p>As with <b>result_attribute</b>, the Postfix mongodb client
+automatically removes the top-level '_id' field from a projection
+result. </p></li>
+
+<li><p> The Postfix mongodb client will only parse fields with data
+types UTF8, INT32, INT64 and ARRAY. Other fields will be ignored,
+with a warning in the logs. It is suggested to exclude any unnecessary
+fields when using a projection. </p></li>
+
+</ul>
+
+<h2><a name="feedback">Feedback</a></h2>
+
+<p> If you have questions, send them to postfix-users@postfix.org.
+Please include relevant information about your Postfix setup:
+MongoDB-related output from postconf, which libraries you built
+with, and such. If your question involves your database contents,
+please include the applicable bits of some database entries. </p>

+# SYNOPSIS
+# \fBpostmap -q "\fIstring\fB" mongodb:/etc/postfix/\fIfilename\fR
+#
+# \fBpostmap -q - mongodb:/etc/postfix/\fIfilename\fB <\fIinputfile\fR
+# DESCRIPTION
+# The Postfix mail system uses optional tables for address
+# rewriting or mail routing. These tables are usually in
+# \fBdbm\fR or \fBdb\fR format.
+#
+# Alternatively, lookup tables can be specified as MongoDB
+# databases. In order to use MongoDB lookups, define a MongoDB
+# source as a lookup table in main.cf, for example:
+# .nf
+# alias_maps = mongodb:/etc/postfix/mongodb-aliases.cf
+# .fi
+#
+# In this example, the file /etc/postfix/mongodb-aliases.cf
+# has the same format as the Postfix main.cf file, and can
+# specify the parameters described below. It is also possible
+# to have the configuration in main.cf; see "OBSOLETE MAIN.CF
+# PARAMETERS" below.
+#
+# It is strongly recommended to use proxy:mongodb, in order
+# to reduce the number of database connections. For example:
+# .nf
+# alias_maps = proxy:mongodb:/etc/postfix/mongodb-aliases.cf
+# .fi
+#
+# Note: when using proxy:mongodb:/\fIfile\fR, the file must
+# be readable by the unprivileged postfix user (specified
+# with the Postfix mail_owner configuration parameter).
+# MONGODB PARAMETERS
+# .ad
+# .fi
+# .IP "\fBuri\fR"
+# The URI of mongo server/cluster that Postfix will try to
+# connect to and query from. Please see
+# .nf
