I know this is off-topic for SATalk, but of those people who have upgraded Postfix from 2.0 to 2.1 to get the new access policy delegation, were there any major snags during the upgrade? I don't want to break my configuration too badly as this is a shared box delivering mail locally, forwarding virtual domain (simple) and also serving as backup MX (mostly a bad idea unless the backup MX knows valid addresses on the primary to avoid backscatter.)
