A GUI that could create 'main.cf', do syntax checking and warn of
potential conflicting options, or perhaps options that were ordered
incorrectly would be a major project IMHO. Add in options for templates
for things like 'virtual hosting', 'sender dependent relaying', etc.,
and the project, while worthwhile, would inevitably take
quite sometime to craft.
