domain (default: no domain list)
This is a list of domain names, paths to files, or dictionaries.
When specified, only fully qualified search keys with a *non-
empty* localpart and a matching domain are eligible for lookup:
'user' lookups, bare domain lookups and "@domain" lookups are
not performed. This can significantly reduce the query load on
the LDAP server.
domain = postfix.org, hash:/etc/postfix/searchdomains
