This needed instead

! #define VERIFY_FLAGS (DEL_REQ_FLAG_VERIFY | DEL_REQ_FLAG_EXPAND)

to work in 2.2 (and it does work, thank you!).

postsuper -r drops the mail into the "maildrop" queue, so it's processed
by the pickup daemon. With this in master.cf:

pickup fifo n - - 60 1 pickup
        -o content_filter=smtp:[filterhost]:25

it's immediately sent via the filter, even if that wasn't the original
intended behaviour (e.g. let's say it came in via smtpd). I realise
this is a side-effect of documented behaviour, but I don't see a clean
programmatic way around it.

If I could specify a different queue with postsuper -r (e.g. the incoming
queue), then it wouldn't happen.

Regards

Joshua.
