My thoughts on this is which provides a better delete function?
For main.cf, postconf already uses the following syntax:
postconf mynetworks ... show main.cf entry(or entries)
postconf -# mynetworks ... comment out main.cf entry
postconf -X mynetworks ... delete main.cf entry
Using the same approach for master.cf:
postconf -M inet.smtp ... show master.cf entry(or entries)
postconf -M# inet.smtp ... comment out master.cf entry
postconf -MX inet.smtp ... delete master.cf entry
Less syntax to learn, fewer mistakes to make.
Oh, excellent and very clear. Thank you. Now these parts of the man page
make more sense.
It does raise a question if there is an uncomment option? For example
submission is commented in the master.cf and a very frequent uncomment
target.
I can see, though that this could be really hard as to how to recognize
a comment line as a commented parameter line.
