have several questions for the group.
Background - Currently I have Postfix 2.10.1 running on CentOS7. It
is rock-solid. If not for the coming EOL on CentOS7 I would leave it
alone.
Indeed CentOS 7 is very near to EOL. If you want you can upgrade CentOS
7 to the latest version of Postfix

I recently upgraded to mail_version = 3.4.23
Suddenly, Postfix no longer logs the lines with IP addresses for the
connections.
There use to be some additional log lines with sender ip addresses.
What did I break? Why no sender data any longer?

Unfortunately, the recursion is needed, if a new package or a system

Maybe as a last resort... but as part of the standard upgrade procedure?
