12 Postifx is definitely worth the investment and people always seem
13 surprised to find that 5-15 lines of config is all they need. You're
14 welcome for the config. I spent most of last week learning the ins and
15 out of authentication and relay hosts that hard way when I changed the
16 domain of our servers and needed to update everything.

18 I'm using a lot of EC2 machines and didn't want to maintain IP lists so
19 I auth all servers trying to relay against my two Postfix servers. This
20 config reflects that and might need some changes for your environment.
