Removing Postfix Patches from Implementations Page
|
|
On http://www.openspf.org/Implementations we currently list source patches to Postfix. When SPF was started and the current Postfix release was 2.0, this was a necessary approach, but since Postfix 2.1 with it's policy server interface (see http://www.postfix.org/SMTPD_POLICY_README.html for details) this has no longer been necessary for quite some time. Unofficial patches to Postfix are, for good reasons, not generally well received in the Postfix community. When MTAs can be extended through documented public interfaces to accomplish a task, this is a safer/more reliable way to do it. Unless someone objects, I'm going to remove the references to Postfix patches from the implementations page.
