21 So, to avoid this, when upgrading from < 2.9.0-r1 to 2.9.0-r1, one
22 should stop postfix, do the upgrade, and then start postfix again?
23 that's how I read it.
24
25 Alternately, copy the old init script prior to upgrade, use that
26 script to bring postfix down, and use the new script to bring postfix
27 up?
