Latest Postfix snapshot and MS 4.29.6-1

[Sveinn G. Gunnarsson]

Hi Julian.

In unstable version 4.29.4 there was announced support for the latest
Postfix snapshot.

I have been experimenting with the latest Postfix snapshot and MailScanner
4.29.6-1 with no success. MailScanner is successfully picking up new
messages, scanning them, and drops them off in the incoming directory, but
then Postfix complaints (see maillog at bottom).



When I examine the queue files before and after MailScanner, I notice a big
difference in the "N'Received: from" line...


Before MailScanner:
N'Received: from a (host.name.com [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx])N/ ............

After MailScanner:
            875m a (host.name.com [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx])N/ ............



Postfix 2.1 RC-1 will be released next weekend, and I'm really excited about
some of the new features, expecially regarding recipient address
verification and SMTPD Policy which will make my life a lot easier.
