You forget about devs Viktor Duchovni, Noel Jones, and others.  If
something were to happen to Wietse they should be able to pick up most
of the slack.  Postfix is pretty much feature complete at this point
anyway, has been for a while.  Most code additions to Postfix these days
are for more efficient spam fighting, such as postscreen, and minor bug
fixes.

I'd be far more concerned about Dovecot, which seems literally a one man
show.
