Having a second postfix instance between amavisd and the email server is |
14 |
going to make things way more complicated. Amavisd is perfectly capable |
15 |
of speaking smtp/lmtp by itself, so unless you need to perform complex |
16 |
mail routing you could directly send the filtered mail to the windows |
17 |
server. |

Other than that, I have very similar setup |
20 |
(fetchmail->postfix->amavis->cyrus-imap, where all hops but the first |
21 |
are done with lmtp) that has been working quite well for the past few years. |
