So I have been unable to discover that information anywhere on the
postfix.org site. Also, I have a suspicion that I may have already asked
this question, many years ago, received an answer, and forgotten it.

I suspect it must be an FAQ; perhaps the docs should include it? It's
not obvious, at least not to me. Perhaps it's already in the docs, and I
just failed to find it?

Thanks again,
