A very good guide by spider.

If you need to change the postfix-configuration and don't like editing it
directly you can try doing it via webmin...

Well I got DNS and Apache up, the next logical setup is to setup the mail 
server.  I decided I would try with Postfix, however is there like a Idiots 
guide to setting it up?  I know its supposedly easier than sendmail, but 
reading the documentation makes no sense to me.  Why do the config files for 
servrers now a days have to be so dang arcane! what happened to simple config 
like apache 1.3? One stinkin config file good explanations of what stuff 
was .. now I get stuff like 
x459=$thisvar{$thatvar} .. then after looking through docs for six weeks you 
come across a post that says .. oh yea.. that is timeout value!
