Sorry for hijacking this thread, I was just about to ask a question
about this option. Why is the default set to $mydestination? Is it for
some legacy compatibility reasons just like
parent_domain_matches_subdomains, or is there another reason behind it?
Should it be generally set to an empty set for servers that do not relay
explicitly?

Thanks
