1) Study the RELEASE_NOTES file and look for any incompatible
   changes that may affect your configuration.

2) Make a backup of the configuration files, so you can go back.
   
3) Stop Postfix (if the RELEASE_NOTES file says you need to).

4) Leave the configuration files alone, install Postfix, then
   execute "postfix upgrade-configuration".

5) Start Postfix (or reload, if the difference with the old
   Postfix version does not require stopping Postfix).
