+
+ Postfix 2.8 introduces minor incompatibilities with previous versions.
+ Alias expansion, dns lookups, TLS support, milters and other features
+ are affected. To avoid surprises, carefully review the RELEASE_NOTES.
+
+ If you upgrade from Postfix 2.6 or earlier, you must execute "postfix
+ stop" and "postfix start" before you can use the postscreen(8) daemon.
+ This is needed because the Postfix 2.6 "pass" master service type did
+ not work reliably on some systems. If you upgrade from Postfix 2.7, or
+ from Postfix 2.8 before July 25, 2010, you must "postfix reload" (or
+ "postfix stop" followed by "postfix start"). This is needed because
+ the queue manager to delivery agent protocol has changed.
+
+ Also note that the optional SPF and VDA patches have not been updated
+ for Postfix 2.8; as a result, they are currently disabled.
