Julian Zehnter pmg-devel at j-z.it
Sun Jan 5 15:53:08 CET 2020


new feature lmtp support for simplifying setups
with lmtp capable downstream servers (e.g. dovecot)
Postfix support lmtp out of the box and can now deliver
mails directly to internal mailbox servers without
one more smtp connection

extending the documentation for new lmtp option
in MailProxyConfiguration and MailProxyConfiguration:Transport
