Updating the current vim syntax file probably isn't terribly complicated, but is well outside the scope of postfix and would be an ongoing project. If you want to fix it, just go through the postconf(5) and master(5) man pages and make sure all valid parameters are included in the vim file (Probably near 800 if you also include all the valid smptd_*_restrictions options). My solution would be to remove the misleading vim syntax file. -- Noel Jones
