I suppose I should have known this years ago. I did not know Debian
modified the Postfix code and even added database drivers. Does Canonical
then further modify it?  I have never been successful in compiling and
configuring a working Postfix from source on Ubuntu.   I am curious which
distribution delivers code that is the least modified?
