, note the special status of 'postmaster' in the final paragraph of
section 2.3.5 of RFC 5321: "The reserved mailbox name "postmaster" may
be used in a RCPT command without domain qualification (see Section
4.1.1.3) and MUST be accepted if so used.".
I think that a prominent statement should be added to the smtpd.conf
manpage, probably something like "All lookups and comparisons of the
user-part of an email address are case-insensitive, and no special
handling is done for any user-part." This is something that anyone
configuring smtpd really should know.

it clear what the difference is, and I don't see a clear
statement of this anywhere else. What exactly is the difference?
A nit: in the phase definition for 'commit' there's an extra 'is'.
BTW, despite my questions I really like OpenSMTPd. Many thanks for
creating it.

rts.
Does OpenSMTPd do anything special for messages arriving on those ports?
If not, is there any way to configure it to do this? I've re-read the
smtpd.conf manpage until my eyes bleed, but if there's anything relevant
in there I've missed it.

ages for local delivery are processed would
be helpful.
Also, 'postmaster', and several other names listed in RFC 2142, are
supposed to always be processed case-insensitively; I don't see any
mention of what, if anything, is done about this. Even if nothing is
done an explicit statement to that effect would be useful.
Thanks for any help,
Dave
