	Your serious? You honestly find postfix lacking in doc's and
poorly documented with no usefull information? *boggle*

	Im actually quite stunned your saying this. The postfix
part. Qmail I understand (vomit). You say postfix is tossing your
mail? I'm going to be so bold as to claim operator error on this one :-)
Since postfix is the most reliable and one of the best documented MTA's
out there. I cant believe your having problems with postfix. What exactly
are the errors its giving in maillog?
