Package: postfix
Version: 2.0.18-1

Postix Debian documentation is lacking, especially compared with Exim4.  For 
example, /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/README.SMTP-AUTH which is concise and 
to-the-point documentation aimed at users of this specific Debian 
implementation of Exim4 who need to set up SMTP-AUTH (either as server or 
client).  

There is basically no default documentation with postfix except the changelog, 
and the extra documentation in postfix-doc seems to be mostly that from the 
upstream source.  It is a shame that is it lacking in Debian-specific help for 
basic things like smarthost, smtp-auth, and TLS.  

Since many users are home/dialup users who would want to use a smarthost 
requiring SMTP AUTH, they should not have to dig through volumes of upstream 
documentation, much of which may not be exactly relevant in the Debian-specific 
implementation.

Please get rid of the irrelevant upstream documentation that is only going to 
confuse users and include Debian-specific help.
