Good on you!

Have a look round to make sure you are not doubling up, Chuck Mead has
written a few docs, have a look at   moongroup.com  in mailhelp, and other
places....

a very common thing. What do the big ISPs do?

Big ISP's pay administrators & contractors, running services and
troubleshooting etc this stuff is a career!....don't forget that, if
software etc was all that simple, I guess a big % would be just making
their own. Some may say I am cynical, but the easier software gets to
configure, the worse it seems to perform & the less flexible it
becomes......(you can think up some names)

Have a look at Weitse's site, or the Postfix mail archives if any
