Actually it was someone else that said postfix should support link-local
suffixes. That conversation happened in 2010, well before I joined this
list. I just wanted link-local matching to work with
(permit)mynetworks, which it didn't in 2.7.7 (due to the suffixes), but
does in 2.9.2 because you added the code to strip the suffixes. I never
had a preference as to *how* the address matching would work. :)
But again, thank you for adding that code. I'm a happy postfix user
(again).
