Its funny, seem that only the users on the postfix list experience 
problems, or theorise about them. I have been using postfix and MS for 
4+ years and i have never experienced any problems, except that postfix 
cant split the multi recipient inbound message into individual queue 
files. But that's a postfix problem...
