ISPC3 Installation/Update Postfix main.cf

[Croydon]

Currently the contents of the main.cf config for postfix seems to be hardcoded into the installer_base library and the operating system specific ones.

This means the main.cf is overwritten on each update/install.

Would it be an option either
- to make a config template for the main.cf that can be overridden in the conf-cust dir - and remains the same during update
or
- to add some config option questions into the (expert mode) installer for the postfix conf

To be more specific:

smtpd_sender_restrictions = check_sender_access mysql:'.$config_dir.'/mysql-virtual_sender.cf

At nearly all servers I use something like

smtpd_sender_restrictions = check_sender_access mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_sender.cf, reject_invalid_hostname, reject_non_fqdn_hostname, reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org

So I have to keep in mind adding these options every time again when updating ispc.

That's true .. only thing i was bothered by that it removed my RBL's ..

I commited RBL adding via webGUI and retaining them during an update to the svn, should be in the next version.

"reject_invalid_hostname, reject_non_fqdn_hostname, " are 2 options that would not hurt putting them in the main.cf template.

Same "problem" here.
It would be very convinient to have a place to put our customizations.
