If it is unclear, ask for clarification.
Actually it's not clear to what condition the "Otherwise" is a conter part. So it's being decided by a reader's logic wich differs sometimes. I'm myself understood the actual meaning only after clarification on this list. And, pleople would ask for clarification only if they can't understand what is being ment, and not in case they think they unsterstand. Also, it's completelly unstated that ".domain.tld" notation doesn't work if smtpd_access_maps is listed in parent_domain_matches_subdomains. > Crying loud > "serious bug" because your language interpretation is different from > others is not helpful at all. List subscriber classified this situation as a "serious bug" from it's point of view, and I think this is correct. If you don't agree, just reclassify it. BTW, clear docs save much time for both, the user, the list. So, I suggest rewritiing this paragraph as following: The pattern domain.tld also matches subdomains, but only when the string smtpd_access_maps is listed in the Postfix parent_domain_matches_subdomains configuration setting. The pattern .domain.tld (note the initial dot) matches only subdomains and only when the string smtpd_access_maps is NOT listed in the Postfix parent_domain_matches_subdomains configuration setting, otherwise it's ignored. Is this correct? -- Покотиленко Костик <cas...@meteor.dp.ua>
