Bug Description
Binary package hint: postfix
When applying security upgrades on postfix, the upgrade process hangs at one point, saying:
"
Bad recipient delimiter
The recipient delimiter must be a single character. 'question skipped' is what you entered
"
Fine, but I never entered these words anywhere.
But the process hangs here, the only "choice" I am offered is "OK", but hitting on that does not make anything happen.
In the output of debconf-show,. I cannot even see this wrong value:
It's right, the mentioned wrong value is there:
root@xnote:~# debconf-show postfix
postfix/mailname: filet.lazy
postfix/
postfix/
* postfix/
postfix/
postfix/
postfix/
postfix/procmail: false
postfix/
postfix/chattr: false
postfix/
postfix/
postfix/
postfix/
postfix/
postfix/
postfix/
postfix/
The upgrade is completely unusable for me, the package installation is broken!
It's insofar a security vulnerability, as it leaves me with an old package version, without being able to _apply_ the available security fix.

Which version of postfix are you seeing this in?
