If someone has the time, they can propose a patch (considering that
this code was written in 1997, I don't see it as an urgent problem).
While they are at it, they might also enforce that the transcript
is sent to the recipient that is configured for the notification
class (and of course do something reasonable when the notification
covers multiple classes). Right now, the Postfix SMTP server and
SMTP client send the transcript to the error recipient, not necessarily
the recipient that is configured for the notification class.
