The two ISO images for Red Hat 6.2 (Classic) in that Archive.org link indeed seem legit. However, they do not contain Postfix (CD1 has the official RPM binary files, and CD2 has the official SRPM source files for RH6.2-Classic). Postfix was not distributed by RedHat for Red Hat Linux 6.2 (Classic). That old version of Red Hat is from year 2000, and it shipped with Sendmail as its only MTA option. There were community-provided RPM packages of Postfix for Red Hat 6.2 (Classic), as noted in the original post for this thread, but none of them seems to have survived on any publicly accessible repository today. But I'm sure it is archived privately in many places. If just this was read by any such archivists... Therefore, I'll keep Sendmail humming along in this retro setup, until a discovery is made (and no, I dare not venture myself into the rabbit hole of compiling vintage Postfix on a vintage system, in case anyone wonders about that).
