Thanks for the answer; though unconvincing. Don't see any reason why we have a castrated package and no obvious way to get a full one. Yes, I tried dpkg-reconfigure, but it never proposed a full install. I saw the postfix-doc, but I don't really need it. vi main.cf usually gets me where I want. I don't want MySQL neither, so why install ? I don't need perl-stuff, neither. So why install ? I would understand a cut-down /etc/postfix with a full one elsewhere; but then reconfigure should ask and enable it. He, am I the only one missing transport maps and stuff ?? > You can check http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html for main.cf > options. I know this URL. "Why make things easy when you can make them complicated ?" It is much easier to find all options in an option file; with empty fields or commented; then an empty option file and up to the user to search, find and copy & paste these options into the options file and set them properly. Really wonder who invented this folly !? Another effort: where, in which package, can I find the complete set of option files, please ?
