The 3.4.0-RC2 version of Postfix appears to have dropped support for
logging via TCP Unix sockets.  As recently as 3.3.0 Postfix used a TCP Unix
socket to connect to syslog.  This is obliquely referenced in the release
notes:

[Incompat 20190126] This introduces a new master.cf service 'postlog'
with type 'unix-dgram' that is used by the new postlogd(8) daemon.
Before backing out to an older Postfix version, edit the master.cf
file and remove the postlog entry.


I was able to work around this by logging to stdout and piping to the
logger command, but perhaps it's worth a separate callout that the old
logging behavior is no longer supported. Perhaps there's a way to do this
in 3.4.0-RC2 that I've missed?

Best,
