The set type is used for primary domains so that you can have a single
rule:
map "bleh" { source plain "/etc/mail/primary" }
accept for primary "bleh" deliver to mbox
handle new primary domains dynamically without having to reload the
ruleset.
Types no longer have a real meaning to smtpd as maps are always stored
raw since a recent commit. You can generate an aliases, virtual or
secrets map using makemap without a type, but providing a type ensures
that the file is syntaxically checked before the db is built.
