I'm sure they have.
If yes any infos/advices welcome
Don't. Such a GUI can only be as good as the GUI creator's
understanding of Postfix, and IME that does not seem to be very good.
If the actual problem you wish to address is to turn over control of
user management to non-technical persons, there are other choices.
Actual management of the MTA itself should never be turned over to
non-technical persons.
My problem is I MUST do this ( delegate minor tasks to a non
technical person )
of course I will install/configure the server myself for the first startup.
But some tasks such user's creation / destruction could be delegated
Modoboa is a web based application to create, administrate, and use virtual
domain hosting platforms.
Modoboa stores its data in a SQL backend (like MySQL or PostgreSQL). Using
this database, you can integrate Modoboa with other mail components, such as
Postfix or Dovecot.
It is written in Python and uses the Django and Mootools frameworks.
And last but not least, Modoboa is open source and is licensed under the
MIT-license.

I tried installing Modoba on Ubuntu 11.04, in the end I gave up I just
could not get it going. I am sure the problem is me, but IMO it is not
for the faint hearted.
