Hello, please this is a friendly request and a discussion starter

keep asking myself why there are such big version differences
between the publisher and the packages.

-Buster 10.11-
ii  postfix 3.4.14-0+deb10u1, was announced June 27, 2020
ii  dovecot-core 1:2.3.4.1-5+deb10u6, was announced Feb 5, 2019
ii  spamassassin 3.4.2-1+deb10u3, was announced Sep 16, 2018
ii  openssl 1.1.1d-0+deb10u7, was announced Sep 11, 2018

I see that Bullseye would have newer releases (sorry, i'dont check this now)
but can this really only be renewed with Package mechanismus, so i need
to run a global upgrade of the OS?

every system that i run will be installed with Debian, and iam happy 
with it!
i would appreciate it if packages were kept reasonably up-to-date. certainly
not extreme that you should follow up on every patch or release, but would
still be a bit more up-to-date without having to upgrade an entire OS.

please this should be a friendly discussion/review, thanks
