Hi all,
I'm migrating a server with older postfix & older mailman2 and noticed
one setting in postfix's main.cf:
owner_request_special = no
The postfix docs for this setting say:
"Enable special treatment for owner-listname entries in the aliases(5)
file, and don't split owner-listname and listname-request address
localparts when the recipient_delimiter is set to "-". This feature is
useful for mailing lists."
Which I don't really grok. I'm not sure why it's set to `no` on the
older server.
It's set to `no` because `yes` is the default and the appropriate
setting for MM 2.1 is `no` except it shouldn't matter because
owner-listname is not a MM 2.1 address and while listname-request is, in
a MM 2.1 installation recipient_delimiter is normally set to `+`.
