Package: postfix
Version: 2.4.5-1
The postfix.postinst script creates two postmaster entries
in /etc/aliases if the debconf variable postfix/root_address is used.
add_root_alias() {
db_get postfix/root_address && root_addr="$RET"
ret=$(echo $RET | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]')
if [ "$ret" != "none" ] && [ -n "$ret" ] ; then
echo "adding root: $RET alias"
echo "root: $RET" >> /etc/aliases
echo "adding postmaster: $RET alias"
echo "postmaster: $RET" >> /etc/aliases
fi
}
......
if [ ! -f /etc/aliases ]; then # no /etc/aliases [
echo "/etc/aliases does not exist, creating it."
cat << EOF > /etc/aliases
# See man 5 aliases for format
postmaster: root
EOF
if [ "$mailer" != "No configuration" ]; then # [
db_fget postfix/root_address changed
if [ "$RET" = "true" ]; then
add_root_alias
NEWALIASES=y
fi
fi # not 'No configuration' ]
resulting in a /etc/aliases containing:
# See man 5 aliases for format
postmaster: root
root: $RET
postmaster: $RET
