Hi Charles, when I was "shopping" for a mail system, I compiled a list of what I wanted. Like SMTP, IMAP, SPF, DKIM, AES, spam filter, runs behind NAT, etc.. Today my shopping list would include SMTP-DANE, MTA-STS, DMARC, CalDAV, sieve. Mailcow matched my shopping list, including the add-ons, and I sticked to it for 8+ years now. If mailcow matches your list of requirements, I can recommend it.
The only thing I never got working with mailcow is replication across two sites.

I have a few mail servers where I need to upgrade things - generally not Postfix itself as, well I can't remember a change where I was like "oh, need to wait until this new stuff settles down", but everything around the MTA and all the little add-ons to get things like DKIM signing, spam filtering, policy (like putting sending quotas on users), and probably many other things I'm not thinking of. There are a million tutorials out there, but I'm not looking for one so much because I want to follow it to the letter, but I also think many of the better guides are a good way to see what people are tying together to make a complete system, and hopefully a way to see new things that are out there. Like, I still use cluebringer/policyd for stuff, maybe there's something better. I guess my point is we all know there are a million ways to put a full mail server together, but I really want to take a close look at what other people (that have published their complete setup as a blog post or HOWTO) are doing, their rationale, etc. So, if this is permissible here, please post a guide that you've seen that you've either used or pulled some tips and tricks from... I'm not terribly interested in IMAP server, webmail, or other things that are a few more steps removed from the MTA, just the bits about the MTA and add-ons/milters and clever ways of exploiting the flexibility on offer from Postfix.
