I'm interested in this topic also, if anybody knows an interface that

IMO, so long as services cling to text files for configuration rather
than configuration via an API such tools are *impossible*
is there really a need for a UI to manage postfix?
I don't think so. How often do you really change Postfix config? If
you can manage alaises, mail routes, etc... in whatever database Postfix
uses [LDAP?] I don't see much need for such an application to touch the
Postfix config. Properly configured you can control just about
everything useful via maps and look-ups. LDAP od DB interfaces are a
dime-a-dozen.
That's what I had in mind: most config changes I do in postfix are not
postfix related. I consider users, mailboxes, .. management to be
outside of the MTA. and for the rest (postfix parameters), I rarely
change them. and when I play with postfix, I don't see how I would allow
that via a remote web UI without being concerned about security. so I
don't see myself writing a suid cgi to run an action that requires
prvilges.
