Last year i converted a postfix only platform, that was supporting a few
hundred thousand mailboxes, to Exim and have never looked back since.
It required investigating a lot of the postfix functions/settings and the
policy daemon that was been used to an Exim only solution, but i wouldnt say
I am a postfix expert. If someone else starts the basis of something I will
definitely help contribute.
