Supporting a path here is important because it allows e.g. fetching a
configuration from a URL. To do this and provide the configuration as
a string, IFD would be necessary. It's just written into a path
anyway.
A centralized list for these renames is not good because:
- It breaks disabledModules for modules that have a rename defined
- Adding/removing renames for a module means having to find them in the
central file
- Merge conflicts due to multiple people editing the central file
When mailman-web restarts, it removes the generated "static" directory. This
breaks a currently running httpd process, which needs a re-start, too, to
obtain a new handle for the newly generated path.
Any system uid will do, so we let the system allocate
one for us. The 'mailman' group is gone entirely since
we don't need it. Users who wish to run the 'mailman'
administration utility can do so via 'sudo':
$ sudo -u mailman mailman info
Also, simplify the syntax of our user.users entry to
rely on an attribute set rather than a list.
The `keys.target` is used to indicate whether all NixOps keys were
successfully uploaded on an unattended reboot. However this can cause
startup issues e.g. with NixOS containers (see #67265) and can block
boots even though this might not be needed (e.g. with a dovecot2
instance running that doesn't need any of the NixOps keys).
As described in the NixOps manual[1], dependencies to keys should be
defined like this now:
``` nix
{
systemd.services.myservice = {
after = [ "secret-key.service" ];
wants = [ "secret-key.service" ];
};
}
```
However I'd leave the issue open until it's discussed whether or not to
keep `keys.target` in `nixpkgs`.

The new option services.postfix.localRecipients allows
configuring the postfix option 'local_recipient_maps'. When
set to a list of user names (or patterns), that map
effectively replaces the lookup in the system's user
database that's used by default to determine which local
users are valid.
This option is useful to explicitly set local users that are
allowed to receive e-mail from the outside world. For local
injection i.e. via the 'sendmail' command this option has no
effect.
