Hi, 

 This email contains several questions and all related my upgrade on
Debian 6 of Postfix from version 2.7 to 2.9.3 (and for Debian this is
2.9.3-2.1~bpo60+1) 

I pipe email to dovecot via SA for content scanning and delivery, and
had this option added , 

dovecot_destination_recipient_limit=1 
This should make sure delivery of recipients is done one at a time. My
server lacks memory and CPU. 

policy_time_limit=3600s 

I use this to keep SPF perl module from dying and restarting too often
and I recall I had problems with this set at the defaults because SPF
policy would not start again. My hack was to increase the policy time
because there is always one email withing 3600 seconds, and not 1200
seconds. I have this in my master.cf: 

policy-spf unix - n n - - spawn
 user=nobody argv=/usr/sbin/postfix-policyd-spf-perl

I would like to know what replaced these commands, and if they weren't
replaced, then what changed within postfix that ensured I don't need to
use them anymore, because I have this warning: 

postconf: warning: /etc/postfix/main.cf: unused parameter:
dovecot_destination_recipient_limit=1
postconf: warning: /etc/postfix/main.cf: unused parameter:
policy_time_limit=3600s

Finally, I tried to turn of chroot in the master.cf and postfix would
not start: postfix/master[28375]: fatal: /etc/postfix/master.cf: line
13: field "chroot": bad value: "no" 

I put this back a hyphen and postfix works! 

Thanks lots in advance if someone could shed a little light over here. 

Si.
