It may be different depending on what your setup is... and I hadn't chance
to go to the bottom of this. Anyway, my case is: postfix with SSL (and
non-SSL), with syrus-sasl authentication on SSLed port done via dovecot.
After update it started hanging  smtp connection (on non-SSLed port at
least) after "EHLO ...." command. But I don't have full list of problems
in my case. In disaster you fix first and investigate later. I doubt I'm
different from other sysadmins in that.

FWIW
