Yes.  And if Postfix were not such a large and complex MTA (not that
others aren't), and if the complexities of getting things working
between Postfix and Dovecot were not so hard (if Postfix and Dovecot
had supported a common file format for listing users and their crypt
passwords, this would have taken a lot less of my time), I might have
had time to read it all.  Unfortunately, working at a startup does not
afford such luxury.

Postfix's great advantage is that it supports so many ways to do things.

I should have also just blown off all the people trying to get me to
use SQL and such, instead of debating them (which was just a waste of
time).
