debian postfix and 3rd party repo



Manao ahoana, Hello, Bonjour,

I have to use the "postfix" package from this repository:

deb http://debian.home-dn.net/lenny postfix-vda/

But the package name (postfix) is the same.
That means if I have official Debian reposotories _and_ that one
enabled, what is the expected behaviour of apt if I perform a

"apt-get install postfix" ?

I suppose I have to use apt pinning, but as far as I know, apt pinning
is between different debian releases, how to pin between these
repositories for postfix?

Misaotra, Thanks, Merci.
