Hello everyone.

I am currently working on mail server, running Postfix 2.0.12, which was
installed via RPM from the following link:

http://postfix.wl0.org/en/

So here are my questions: (Bare with me...im fairly new to all of this)

1.) It appears that I am going to need to do one of two things to be able
to add a few features that I would like: Specifially, SASL support. To do
that, I can do one of two things: Download the source tarball and go
through the all thing: OR, I can download the src.rpm available, and
configure a few options of my own, correct?

2.) Currently, my mail server is working the way I would like it to be. I
have setup my main.cf and master.cf and it is doing what I want it to do.

3.) What is the best way I can go about re-installing postfix, to add new
features, and at the same time, make sure I do not lose any important
information? I already backed up my main.cf and master.cf...is there
anything else that I can do?

I have not done a whole lot of recompling software to add new features, so
im still learning.

If anyone can help me out here, I would very much appreciate it.

Thank you.

Jason
