+This is the Postfix 3.4 (stable) release.
+
+The stable Postfix release is called postfix-3.4.x where 3=major
+release number, 4=minor release number, x=patchlevel.  The stable
+release never changes except for patches that address bugs or
+emergencies. Patches change the patchlevel and the release date.
+
+New features are developed in snapshot releases. These are called
+postfix-3.5-yyyymmdd where yyyymmdd is the release date (yyyy=year,
+mm=month, dd=day).  Patches are never issued for snapshot releases;
+instead, a new snapshot is released.
+
+The mail_release_date configuration parameter (format: yyyymmdd)
+specifies the release date of a stable release or snapshot release.
+
+If you upgrade from Postfix 3.2 or earlier, read RELEASE_NOTES-3.3
+before proceeding.

+Incompatible changes
+--------------------
+
+[Incompat 20180826] The Postfix SMTP server announces CHUNKING (BDAT
+command) by default. In the unlikely case that this breaks some
+important remote SMTP client, disable the feature as follows:
+
+/etc/postfix/main.cf:
+    # The logging alternative:
+    smtpd_discard_ehlo_keywords = chunking
+    # The non-logging alternative:
+    smtpd_discard_ehlo_keywords = chunking, silent_discard
+
+See BDAT_README for more.
+
+[Incompat 20190126] This introduces a new master.cf service 'postlog'
+with type 'unix-dgram' that is used by the new postlogd(8) daemon.
+Before backing out to an older Postfix version, edit the master.cf
+file and remove the postlog entry.
+
+[Incompat 20190106] Postfix 3.4 drops support for OpenSSL 1.0.1
+(end-of-life was December 31, 2016) and all earlier releases.
+
+[Incompat 20180701] To avoid performance loss under load, the
+tlsproxy(8) daemon now requires a zero process limit in master.cf
+(this setting is provided with the default master.cf file). By
+default, a tlsproxy(8) process will retire after several hours.
+
+To set the tlsproxy process limit to zero:
+
+# postconf -F tlsproxy/unix/process_limit=0
+# postfix reload
+
+Major changes - bdat support
+--------------------
+
+[Feature 20180826] Postfix SMTP server support for RFC 3030 CHUNKING
+(the BDAT command) without BINARYMIME, in both smtpd(8) and
+postscreen(8). This has no effect on Milters, smtpd_mumble_restrictions,
+and smtpd_proxy_filter. See BDAT_README for more.
+
+Major changes - containers
+--------------------------
+
+[Feature 20190126] Support for logging to file or stdout, instead
+of using syslog.
+
+- Logging to file solves a usability problem for MacOS, and
+  eliminates multiple problems with systemd-based systems.
+
+- Logging to stdout is useful when Postfix runs in a container, as
+  it eliminates a syslogd dependency.
+
+See MAILLOG_README for configuration examples and logfile rotation.
+
+[Feature 20180422] Better handling of undocumented(!) Linux behavior
+whether or not signals are delivered to a PID=1 process.
+
+Major changes - database support
+--------------------------------
+
+[Feature 20181105] Support for (key, list of filenames) in map
+source text.
+
+- Currently, this feature is used only by tls_server_sni_maps.
+
+- When a map is created from source with "postmap -F maptype:mapname",
+  the command processes each key as usual and processes each value
+  as a list of filenames, concatenates the content of those files
+  (with one newline character in-between files), and stores an entry
+  with (key, base64-encoded result).
+
+- When a map is queried with "postmap -F -q ...", the command
+  base64-decodes each value. It reports an error when a value is
+  not in base64 form.
+
+  This "postmap -F -q ..." behavior also works when querying the
+  memory-resident map types cidr:, inline:, pcre:, randmap:, regexp:,
+  and static:. Postfix reads the files specified as table values,
+  stores base64-encoded content, and base64-decodes content upon
+  table lookup.
+
+  Internally, Postfix will turn on this behavior for lookups (not
+  updates) when a map is opened with the DICT_FLAG_RHS_IS_FILE flag.
+
+Major changes - logging
+-----------------------
+
+[Feature 20190126] Support for logging to file or stdout, instead
+of using syslog.
+
+- Logging to file solves a usability problem for MacOS, and
+  eliminates multiple problems with systemd-based systems.
+
+- Logging to stdout is useful when Postfix runs in a container, as
+  it eliminates a syslogd dependency.
+
+See MAILLOG_README for configuration examples and logfile rotation.
+
+Major changes - safety
+----------------------
+
+[Feature 20180623] Automatic retirement: dnsblog(8) and tlsproxy(8) process
+will now voluntarily retire after after max_idle*max_use, or some
+sane limit if either limit is disabled. Without this, a process
+could stay busy for days or more.
+
+Major changes - tls connection pooling
+--------------------------------------
+
+[Feature 20180617] Postfix SMTP client support for multiple deliveries
+per TLS-encrypted connection. This is primarily to improve mail
+delivery performance for destinations that throttle clients when
+they don't combine deliveries.
+
+This feature is enabled with "smtp_tls_connection_reuse=yes" in
+main.cf, or with "tls_connection_reuse=yes" in smtp_tls_policy_maps.
+It supports all Postfix TLS security levels including dane and
+dane-only.
+
+The implementation of TLS connection reuse relies on the same
+scache(8) service as used for delivering plaintext SMTP mail, the
+same tlsproxy(8) daemon as used by the postscreen(8) service for
+inbound connections, and relies on the same hints from the qmgr(8)
+daemon. It reuses the configuration parameters described in
+CONNECTION_CACHE_README.
+
+The Postfix SMTP client now logs whether an SMTP-over-TLS connection
+is newly established ("TLS connection established") or whether the
+connection is reused ("TLS connection reused").
+
+The following illustrates how TLS connections are reused:
+
+    Initial plaintext SMTP handshake:
+      smtp(8) -> remote SMTP server
+
+    Reused SMTP/TLS connection, or new SMTP/TLS connection:
+      smtp(8) -> tlsproxy(8) -> remote SMTP server
+
+    Cached SMTP/TLS connection:
+      scache(8) -> tlsproxy(8) -> remote SMTP server
+
+Major changes - tls support
+---------------------------
+
+[Feature 20190106] SNI support in the Postfix SMTP server, the
+Postfix SMTP client, and in the tlsproxy(8) daemon (both server and
+client roles). See the postconf(5) documentation for the new
+tls_server_sni_maps and smtp_tls_servername parameters.
+
+[Feature 20190106] Support for files that contain multiple (key,
+certificate, trust chain) instances. This was required to implement
+server-side SNI table lookups, but it also eliminates the need for
+separate cert/key files for RSA, DSA, Elliptic Curve, and so on.
+The file format is documented in the TLS_README sections "Server-side
+certificate and private key configuration" and "Client-side certificate
+and private key configuration", and in the postconf(5) documentation
+for the parameters smtp_tls_chain_files, smtpd_tls_chain_files,
+tlsproxy_client_chain_files, and tlsproxy_tls_chain_files.
+
+Note: the command "postfix tls" does not yet support the new
+consolidated certificate chain format.  If you switch to the new
+format, you'll need to manage your keys and certificates directly,
+rather than via postfix-tls(1).
+
+Major changes - usability
+-------------------------
+
+[Feature 20180812] Support for smtpd_reject_footer_maps (as well
+as the postscreen variant postscreen_reject_footer_maps) for more
+informative reject messages. This is indexed with the Postfix SMTP
+server response text, and overrides the footer specified with
+smtpd_reject_footer.  One will want to use a pcre: or regexp: map
+with this.
