Postfix ranks among the most structured and easy-to-use software packages I have worked with during the last three decades, seeing how complex the underlying issues are. The docs do contain "concepts and methodologies", but anyone who wants to maintain a production level mail server needs a thorough understanding about how email works (including how DNS works). It is not Postfix' job to teach fundamentals. You have also received a lot of useful information via this mailing list, and people here usually get more mileage out less info given. Frankly, Postfix is not the problem. -Ralph
