A more thorough check revealed that this only happens when
requesting VERP style delivery to process a mailing list.

Has anything changed in Postfix 2.9.x VERP processing?


My VERP settings include:
postconf -n | grep 'verp\|recipient_delimiter'
   recipient_delimiter = +
   smtpd_authorized_verp_clients = $mynetworks

The mailing list is managed by mlmmj (which is a ezmlm clone that works
with Postfix under Linux).

mlmmj adds  XVERP=-=  to the MAIL FROM: line.
mlmmj needs to set =-= to be able to process owner-listname internally.
mlmmj sets verp recipients to 100.

grep 'foo:' /etc/aliases  # foo is a mailing list =< 1000 subscribers
   foo: "|/usr/bin/mlmmj-recieve -L /var/spool/mlmmj/foo/"

Any other thoughts ?

Thank you,
M.
