+Major changes with Postfix 3.8.4
+================================
+
+Security: the Postfix SMTP server optionally disconnects a remote
+SMTP client that sends a 'bare newline' line ending in SMTP. This
+prevents an SMTP smuggling attack on recipients at a Postfix server.
+For background, see https://www.postfix.org/smtp-smuggling.html
+
+Sites concerned about SMTP smuggling attacks should enable this
+feature in Internet-facing Postfix servers. For compatibility with
+non-standard clients, Postfix by default excludes clients in
+mynetworks from this countermeasure.
+
+The default settings are:
+
+    # Optionally disconnect remote SMTP clients that send bare newlines,
+    # but allow local clients with non-standard SMTP implementations
+    # such as netcat, fax machines, or load balancer health checks.
+    #
+    smtpd_forbid_bare_newline = no
+    smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_exclusions = $mynetworks
+
+This feature is back-ported from Postfix 3.9, with the difference
+that "smtpd_forbid_bare_newline = no" by default.
