Postfix: past, present and future
In the 12 years since its initial release by IBM, the open source Postfix
mail system has become part of the email infrastructure. The system has
proven itself on personal systems and on ISP infrastructures with 10s of
millions of mailboxes. After Postfix reached completion by 2006, the focus
of development has moved from building new functionality towards making the
system more extensible and more survivable in the face of changing threats
and requirements. In this presentation Wietse will review lessons learned,
current developments, and some speculation about the future.
