As I stated in the report, I fixed it for myself, but I thnk that this is a bug which breaks postfwd for many people upgrading from Buster to Bullseye. If you had the systemd service enabled but you did not set STARTUP=1 in /etc/default/postfwd, then it worked in Buster and does not work in Bullseye. And systemd does not make it exactly clear that the service failed to start. I think the update should be done even for such small thing, as that change was not mentioned in any change log and broke functionality in a way that required manual invervention.
