That's what I want to use, except for fetchmail instead of getmail.

I'm taking the suggestions in this thread (thanks), and following the simple 
mail server guide [1]. I've made precisely two changes in main.cf: soft_bounce 
= yes, mynetworks_style = host. Everything else is left at its default.

Postfix starts okay, but when I 'telnet localhost 25' I get this in the log:

fatal: in parameter smtpd_relay_restrictions or smtpd_recipient_restrictions, 
specify at least one working instance of: reject_unauth_destination, 
defer_unauth_destination, reject, defer, defer_if_permit or 
check_relay_domains

Which of those restrictions do I specify, and where, and why aren't they set 
by default?

Yes, KMail is fine for this, with spamassassin.
