no, "-d" shows the default values only, the values postfix was built
with. it doesn't show any "new settings".

what you mean is unclear.

To set a variable, use 'postconf -e' or edit main.cf

To see the values of variables that are set in main.cf, use 'postconf -n'

To see the defaut values, i.e. the values set when postfix is compiled,
use 'postconf -d'

notes:

postconf -n does not show the values of custom variables. in particular,
if you create smtpd_restriction_classes, you won't see how these classes
are defined in the output of 'postconf -n'

postconf -n does not parse master.cf. so a setting may be overriden in
master.cf even if you don't see it in 'postconf -n' output.
