Postfix attempts to be fast, easy to administer, and secure, while at the same
time being sendmail compatible enough to not upset existing users. Thus, the
outside has a sendmail-ish flavor, but the inside is completely different.
Some feautures:
Connection cache for SMTP, DSN status notifications, IP version 6, Plug-in
support for multiple SASL implementations (Cyrus, Dovecot), TLS encryption and
authentication, Configurable status notification message text, Access control
per client/sender/recipient/etc, Content filter (built-in, external before
queue, external after queue), Berkeley DB database, LDAP database, MySQL
database, PostgreSQL database, Maildir and mailbox format, Virtual domains,
VERP envelope return addresses and others.

- remove expired postfix211 ports
as they are no longer supported by upstream vendor since January 2018
Users using the VDA patch should adopt dovecot-lda which has also quota
support. As alternative users can jump on the wagon and try to become
an active maintainer of the SF.net VDA project (or a fork)
