is rumored to have said:
My questions are:
1. Why was the magic value of "ORIGINATING" used in the Digital
Ocean example ?
It's not 'magic' but it is the value that Postfix uses as an example in
master.cf.
2. Can I allow the default value of: milter_macro_daemon_name to
be used _WITHOUT_ affecting OpenDKIM and ClamAV ?
That depends on what you want to do with those milters.
If you want to handle incoming (smtp) and outgoing (smtps and/or
sumbission) mail differently in your milters, you need a way for the
milters to tell the difference. The ${daemon_name} macro is the usual
way for a milter to make that differentiation. It is almost certain that
you want OpenDKIM to deal with inbound and outbound mail differently
(signing or verifying.) Using the default value of
milter_macro_daemon_name for all of the smtp-like services that use
milters eliminates the ability of your milters to make that
differentiation. Check the documentation of your milters for details.
