Is there a package that needs to be installed for that to happen?

On my postfix installation there is no sysadmin alias (there is system, admin, and many others). Nor is there any sign of undelivered emails to sysadmin in the mail logs.

This helps indeed, even though I recognise that there is a security issue.

I hope either Apple will fix OS X El Capitan to fully support TLSv1.2, or users will stop using 9-year-old laptops that cannot be upgraded any further than that OS X version. (But why chuck a perfectly working computer??)

Thanks again for your help,
Jan
