[Dovecot] Step-by-set Postfix/Dovecot/LDA?

Anyone know of a /complete/ step-by-step HOWTO for setting up a system 
using Postfix, Dovecot, and Deliver?  I'm looking to put a new mail 
server together that will host three domains with pretty low volumes of 
email.  Later adding three or four more for some non-profits that I host.

I'm finding my self skipping all around the Postfix and Dovecot sites 
trying to come up with this setup.

I have set up Postfix in several different configurations: inbound 
spool, outbound SMTP, regular mail server, etc.  And with Dovecot I was 
lucky as it ran for me pretty much out of the box.  Of course that was 
on a single domain mail server.  (Not to mention it is a really old 
version.)

Since it went up I've added a couple of domains to my personal 
collection and rather than add a new mail server for each I thought I'd 
go the virtual route.

Anyone have a complete set of example .conf files they could share?

main.cf, master.cf
dovecot.conf

Isn't it about time for a Dovecot book?


TIA,
Rod
