Well, I tried to run exactly this setup on a debian/testing box (postfix
2.1.3), and i got this error :

fatal: dict_open: unsupported dictionary type: inet: Is the
postfix-inet package installed?

... no way to found the postfix-inet package for debian, and no
compilation options in postfix source package too.

Any suggestions ?

thanks

Denis
