The following changes were made in the official release (1.1.10)
and in the snapshot release (1.1.10-20020514).

- Bugfix: the new code for header address quoting sometimes did
  not null terminate strings so that arbitrary garbage could appear
  at the end of message headers.  Reported by Ralf Hildebrandt.

- Safety: user@domain@domain is no longer accepted by the
  permit_mx_backup UCE restriction (unless Postfix is configured
  with "resolve_dequoted_address = no"). By Victor Duchovny.

The difference between a snapshot and an official release is as
follows: the official release does not change except for bugfixes
and portability patches. New features are tried out in snapshot
releases.  Code that works and that stops changing becomes part of
Postfix official version 1.2.

    Incompatible changes
    ====================

    For safety reasons, the permit_mx_backup restriction no longer
    accepts mail for user@domain@domain. To recover the old behavior,
    specify "resolve_dequoted_address = no" which opens up a completely
    different can of worms as described a few paragraphs down in this
    document.
